PancakeSwap and Brevis Expand Partnership with ZK-Verified LP Incentives on Base

PancakeSwap today announced a new set of Incentra-powered reward campaigns for liquidity providers on Base, marking a deepening of its collaboration with Brevis and a step toward fully verifiable LP incentives. The program runs across 11 PancakeSwap v3 pools on Base and pays out OP token rewards to LPs in proportion to the trading fees their positions generate, with every calculation backed by zero-knowledge proofs and claimable on Optimism mainnet.

The campaign expands an existing relationship between PancakeSwap and Brevis that began with PancakeSwap Infinity, where Brevis’ on-chain hooks deliver dynamic trading fees tailored to users’ trading histories and CAKE holdings. That integration has already produced more than 26 million ZK proofs and supported $1.18 billion in trading volume, according to PancakeSwap. The new Incentra initiative takes the partnership beyond personalized fee mechanics and applies the same trustless, cryptographic infrastructure to incentive distribution for liquidity providers.

Eligible pools include $ETH–$USDC, $ETH–cbBTC, cbBTC–$USDC, wstETH–$ETH, $EURC–WETH, $EURC–$USDC, $USDC–USDT, VIRTUAL–WETH, ZORA–$USDC, AVNT–$USDC and ZEN–WETH, with the pools split between 0.01% and 0.05% fee tiers. PancakeSwap has allocated 240,000 OP to these campaigns, distributing roughly 20,000 OP per week, a pace that works out to about a 12-week program unless weekly amounts are adjusted over time.

ZK-Verified Rewards

Brevis pulls LP position data directly from the blockchain, calculates each LP’s share of fees earned within the eligible pools, and generates cryptographic proofs that those calculations were done correctly. Those zero-knowledge proofs are then verified on-chain, so users can independently confirm that the position data was genuine, the fee math followed the announced formula, allocations matched the published criteria, and no participant received preferential treatment. In short, LPs don’t have to place blind trust in any intermediary; the proofs carry the trust.

Practically, participation requires nothing more than providing liquidity to any of the eligible PancakeSwap v3 pools on Base during the campaign period. Rewards accrue automatically based on the trading fees a position generates, and LPs can claim their OP tokens through Incentra on Optimism mainnet. PancakeSwap notes that no separate opt-in is required, and points users to the Incentra dashboard for details and claiming: https://incentra.brevis.network/?chainid=8453&type=3&status=4

The move illustrates PancakeSwap’s continued investment in verifiable infrastructure that reduces centralization points of failure and increases transparency for users. For traders, Infinity’s Brevis hooks have already enabled more personalized fee experiences; for LPs, Incentra now brings cryptographic assurances to the other side of the DEX: rewards.

By bringing Brevis technology to both trading and liquidity incentives, PancakeSwap is trying to knit personalized, dynamic pricing and provable rewards into a single, trustless ecosystem. As DeFi platforms compete on user experience, returns and trust, this campaign shows one practical way protocols can use cryptography to make incentive programs auditable and fair without sacrificing the efficiency and customization that traders and LPs expect.
