According to Pancakeswap developers, the latest iteration features improved capital efficiency, allowing liquidity providers to concentrate capital more efficiently.
While Pancakeswap v2 features a standard fee of 0.25%, users of Pancakeswap v3 can choose from four different fee tiers, which include 0.01%, 0.05%, 0.25%, and 1%.

Currently, the BNB version has seven coins and 14 different trading pairs.
At 64.83%, the majority of trades on Pancakeswap v3 Binance Coin (BNB) version are associated with wrapped BNB (WBNB) and the stablecoin tether (USDT).
