Strategic pools to receive bribes, reallocation of CAKE emissions
The CAKE kitchen has proposed redirecting current emissions that go to farming pools and allocating them to locker protocol bribes.

We're now strategically deploying bribes across CakePie, StakeDAO, & Hidden Hand to enhance liquidity in these pools: BNB-USDT, USDT-BNB, CAKE-BNB, & CAKE-USDT.
This strategic…
The proposal says it will start with 500 CAKE tokens and eventually direct greater emissions to high-volume pools. This action will help grow liquidity, the protocol said, and metrics like pool volumes, total value of assets locked (TVL) and capital efficiency will be used to measure success.
These actions will not impact the deflationary status of CAKE as no emissions have been added or removed, only redirected.
The proposal received 99% votes in favor, passing with a vast majority.
Another catalyst that may have influenced CAKE price is the project’s recent tweet announcing a new product launch coming up.
