Binance Labs makes strategic investment in PancakeSwap
Binance Labs, the venture capital and incubation arm of Binance, has made an investment in CAKE, the utility and governance token of decentralized exchange (DEX) PancakeSwap.
⠀
The undisclosed investment is part of Binance Labs’ "mission to facilitate the next wave of global blockchain adoption by providing technology development, marketing and community support, and enterprise solutions for Web3 transformation."
⠀
⠀
Launched in September 2020, PancakeSwap is an automated market maker (AMM) that allows users to trade, swap, and stake BEP-20 tokens issued on Binance's BNB Chain.
⠀
“PancakeSwap has been leading the development and mass adoption of BNB Chain. Given that PancakeSwap is the most widely used dApp and the DeFi project with the highest TVL on BNB Chain, we have and will continue to provide strong support for the project.”
⠀
Following the announcement, CAKE was up nearly 10%, reaching a high of $4.84. However, the token is down 36% from $7.45 last month and a long way from its all-time high of $43.96 set on April 30, 2021.
Apple introduces new M2 processor chip
At Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC), the company announced its new flagship M2 processor chip. The new processor chip promises to improve the performance of its Mac products.
⠀
The M2 processor chip uses the company’s custom Arm silicon built on a 5-nanometer process that is complete with a 20 billion transistor. The transistors will boost the performance of Apple products compared to its M1 chip. Apple promises that the new chip will have an 18% faster CPU and a 35% faster GPU.
⠀
To better the performance of Macs, the company will be using new performance and efficiency cores in the new M2 chip as well as a 100Gbps of memory bandwidth and a 24GB of fast unified memory. According to Apple, the performance of the M2 chip is said to be 1.9x faster than the “latest 10-core PC laptop chip.”
⠀
Besides providing better performance, the M2 chip will feature an updated media engine that supports 8K H.264 and HEVC video, as well as a next-generation secure enclave and neural engine. This means that the M2 chip will enable systems that run it the capability to simultaneously play multiple streams of 4K and 8K videos.
