Today marks the start of our ten-day countdown to the launch of Pineapple DEX Lite: a lean, high-speed version of our upcoming full-stack DEX, designed to get users in early and set the pace for what’s next.
Pineapple DEX Lite will officially go live on July 10th, and each day leading up to launch will unlock a new layer of the ecosystem. You’ll see everything from much-anticipated product rollouts to insane real-world partnerships - all aimed at putting Pineapple in front of millions of new eyeballs, while giving our community early access to the tools and incentives that will shape what comes next.
This is the first step toward a more connected, more accessible DeFi ecosystem - one that’s built to onboard the next wave of users - and we’re inviting our community to help build it with us.
Why DEX Lite for Decentralized Trading?
In a space that moves fast, iteration isn’t optional - it’s essential. Rather than building in a vacuum, we’re launching in sequence. Pineapple DEX Lite is a focused MVP, designed to get the core mechanics into the hands of our users as early as possible - so you can stake, trade, and influence what comes next. This rollout strategy allows us to stay agile, respond to real usage, and build a product that actually meets the needs of the people using it - not just the people designing it.
If you’re among the first to dive in, you’ll have the opportunity to take part in a new program designed to reward you for your feedback and contributions: helping us shape the product in real-time while unlocking early benefits for yourself.
What you can expect on Launch:
- No platform fees whatsoever: Uniswap and others take a cut, Pineapple doesn’t.
- Instant chain switching: flip between Ethereum, Base & BSC in one click. More coming very soon.
- Custom, state-of-the-art aggregator and router: own smart contracts that find the best trading path, supporting multiple hops.
- Efficient auto-slippage calculation: Pineapple simulates your trade in real time to find the exact slippage needed - reducing failed transactions and saving you on gas costs.
- Real simulations for the lowest gas prices: Pineapple automatically detects the minimum gas fee needed - no guesswork, no surprises.
- Manual priority-fee boost: Pineapple lets you crank up the priority fee if you need speed - Uniswap doesn’t give you that control.
- Responsive & animated UI: on both desktop and mobile, everything moves smoothly, no matter your device.
- Built-in user safety guards, such as:
- Slippage cap: Pineapple caps slippage at 20%, reducing user-error outcomes.
- Token-list filtering: while you can trade any token, we only show tokens from CoinGecko’s top 100 and our own vetted lists by default - no unvetted tokens will appear unless you deliberately import them yourself.
And in the weeks that follow, you’ll see:
- New product releases
- External integrations via API
- New tokens and partnerships
- Enhanced trading tools and analytics
- Even more token utility and on-chain incentives
- Community-led upgrades and reward mechanics
This Is Just the Beginning
DEX Lite is the start of something much bigger. We’re launching with a lean, high-impact core - but there’s a packed pipeline of features, mechanics, and integrations on the way. And with input from our community, we’ll keep building, shipping, and evolving.
We’ll never be done iterating, because that’s what this space demands. From project incubation to portfolio optimization, we’re building an all-in-one ecosystem to empower projects and users across every stage of the on-chain journey. For the first time, we’re bringing everything together: token discovery, trading, staking, community engagement, and AI automation - all within a single, user-friendly interface. Whether you’re launching a token or navigating DeFi as a user, Pineapple will give you the tools to start, scale, and stay active on-chain.
Our mission is simple: build where DeFi needs us most. Each tool in our stack will be powerful on its own, but together, we’re transforming the fragmented experience into one seamless, powerful ecosystem: one where projects grow, users thrive, and the barriers to entry are finally broken.
Thanks for being here from Day One. We’re just getting started.
