How to Add / Remove Liquidity (SOL)
“Liquidity” is central to how PancakeSwap’s Exchange works. You can add liquidity for any token pair by staking both through the Liquidity page.
In return for adding liquidity, you’ll receive trading fees for that pair and farming rewards (if applicable)
PancakeSwap V3 lets you provide concentrated liquidity — meaning you choose the price range where your liquidity is active. This gives you more control and efficiency over how your capital is used.
