PancakeSwap is applying a 90/10 trading-fee split to Infinity liquidity pools on both Robinhood Chain and Arc, directing the larger share toward liquidity providers as competition for on-chain capital intensifies. LPs retain 90% of trading fees generated by the covered pools while PancakeSwap keeps the remaining 10%. The Robinhood Chain structure became effective on September 23, according to PancakeSwap’s official fee announcement, while the same economics accompanied Infinity’s September 29 deployment on Arc.
The change applies across every Infinity pool on Robinhood Chain rather than a limited promotional set, and existing LPs did not need to migrate positions for the new distribution to take effect. The 90% figure describes how collected trading fees are divided, not the total fee charged to traders or a guaranteed return for liquidity providers. PancakeSwap highlighted WETH/USDG, NVDA/USDG and AAPL/USDG pools with 0.01% fee tiers as examples.
PancakeSwap Shifts More Trading Revenue Toward LPs
Infinity allows individual pools to use static or dynamic fee settings, so the fee paid by a trader and the revenue split between LPs and the protocol are separate parameters. PancakeSwap’s general documentation normally applies protocol fees differently across Infinity configurations, making the 90/10 treatment on Robinhood Chain and Arc a chain-specific economic choice. A larger LP share increases how much of an existing fee pool reaches liquidity providers without automatically increasing gross fees, trading volume or profitability.
That distinction is visible in PancakeSwap’s WETH/USDG example. A recent snapshot cited a 6.41% APR, approximately $204.79K in 24-hour volume and a 0.01% trading-fee tier. The APR can move quickly because fee income depends on actual trading activity, liquidity depth and how capital is positioned inside the pool. Impermanent loss and out-of-range concentrated liquidity can also offset fee income, so the 90% allocation should not be read as a 90% yield.
Robinhood Chain gives PancakeSwap a particularly active market for the strategy. The network has become an important venue for tokenized securities, with tokenized-stock DEX trading expanding across Robinhood Chain and other networks. For PancakeSwap, directing more fees to LPs is effectively a bid for the capital needed to support tighter spreads and deeper execution in those markets, rather than evidence that liquidity has already migrated toward Infinity.
Arc Extends the Same Model Into Stablecoin Markets
PancakeSwap is now applying the same split on Arc, where users can trade and provide liquidity through Infinity pools while LPs retain 90% of fees. Arc itself went public on September 16 as Circle’s Layer 1 focused on payments, FX, lending and tokenized financial assets, with USDC used for network fees. Arc’s public mainnet launch That makes liquidity economics particularly relevant because Arc is designed around financial applications that depend on executable markets rather than simple contract deployment.
PancakeSwap is entering an Arc market where other DEXs already have measurable activity. Uniswap reported more than $300 million in swaps shortly after mainnet launch and claimed 84% of Arc DEX volume during its measured window. Uniswap’s early Arc trading activity The 90/10 split therefore functions as a competitive liquidity incentive in an ecosystem where market share is already being contested, rather than merely reproducing PancakeSwap’s Robinhood Chain setup on another network.
Arc had also accumulated more than $300 million in DeFi TVL soon after launch, while multiple protocols arrived with separate lending and trading models. Arc’s early liquidity growth A generous fee share can help PancakeSwap attract capital, but durable liquidity will still depend on whether pools generate enough trading activity to compensate LPs for inventory and price risk.
The more revealing story is therefore not the 90/10 ratio by itself, but how PancakeSwap is using fee economics differently across new markets. On Robinhood Chain, it is competing for liquidity around tokenized assets; on Arc, it is entering a stablecoin-centered financial network where rival DEXs already have established flow. If LP capital remains after the initial incentives and produces consistently deeper markets, the fee split will have done more than redistribute revenue. If not, the headline percentage will matter far less than the trading activity underneath it.
