PancakeSwap Investigation Services
Track swaps, investigate rug pulls, and trace scam tokens on PancakeSwap—the leading BNB Chain DEX. Expert analysis of BSC's most active DeFi platform.
BNB Chain's Largest DEX
PancakeSwap dominates decentralized trading on BNB Chain, processing billions in monthly volume. Its low fees and fast transactions have made it the go-to platform for BSC token trading—but also a favorite launchpad for scam tokens and rug pulls. BNB Chain consistently has the highest number of rug pulls of any blockchain, with PancakeSwap at the center.
Investigating PancakeSwap activity requires deep knowledge of BNB Chain's ecosystem and the platform's expanding product suite. Beyond simple swaps, PancakeSwap offers farming, staking, NFTs, prediction markets, and lotteries—each creating complex transaction patterns that must be properly decoded for accurate analysis.
Our team has investigated hundreds of PancakeSwap-related fraud cases, from small rug pulls to multi-million dollar scam token schemes. We understand BSC-specific patterns like reflection tokens, auto-LP mechanisms, and the common tactics scammers use to obscure fund movements. When funds disappear through PancakeSwap, we find where they went.
Why BNB Chain Scam Investigation Matters
BNB Chain hosts the majority of all rug pulls in cryptocurrency, making PancakeSwap investigation expertise essential for fraud recovery.
Low fees enable scammers to create complex multi-hop transaction patterns with dozens of wallets—making professional investigation necessary.
BNB Chain's low fees are a double-edged sword. They make DeFi accessible but also make it cheap for scammers to deploy malicious tokens and create elaborate transaction patterns to hide stolen funds. A scammer on Ethereum might use 5-10 hops before cashing out; on BSC, we regularly see 30-50 hop patterns.
This complexity requires specialized BSC investigation capabilities. Our databases include millions of labeled BSC addresses—exchanges, known scam wallets, DeFi protocols, and services. Combined with automated pattern detection and manual expert analysis, we cut through obfuscation to trace funds to their destinations.

Common PancakeSwap Scam Patterns
Classic Rug Pull
Developer creates token, adds PancakeSwap liquidity, promotes through Telegram and Twitter, waits for price to rise from buyer demand, then removes all liquidity and disappears. Often executed within hours of launch.
Investigation approach: Trace from token deployment → liquidity addition → marketing wallet activity → liquidity removal → fund destination tracking.
Honeypot Tokens
Contract allows buying on PancakeSwap but blocks selling through various mechanisms—hidden fees, blacklists, or ownership-controlled transfers. Victims buy in, watch price rise with other victims, but cannot sell.
Investigation approach: Contract analysis to document honeypot mechanism, trace accumulated BNB from buys, follow funds to developer wallets and exchanges.
Reflection Token Scams
Tokens with automatic "reflection" rewards to holders are popular on BSC but often conceal scam mechanisms. Hidden sell taxes, developer exemptions, or admin-controlled blacklists allow selective rugging.
Investigation approach: Contract function analysis, tax mechanism documentation, trace of developer-exempt wallets, and fund flow through complex tokenomics.
Impersonation Tokens
Fake tokens mimicking legitimate projects—fake SafeMoon, fake Dogecoin BSC, fake celebrity tokens. Promoted through fake social accounts and phishing sites directing to PancakeSwap.
Investigation approach: Contract verification against official sources, victim fund tracing, scam wallet identification, and exchange deposit tracking.

PancakeSwap Investigation FAQ
Can you trace funds swapped through PancakeSwap?
Yes, we provide complete tracing of funds through PancakeSwap on BNB Chain and other networks. We decode swap transactions, track tokens through multiple conversions, and follow funds to their ultimate destinations—whether that's another DeFi protocol, a centralized exchange, or a personal wallet.
How do you investigate PancakeSwap rug pulls?
PancakeSwap rug pull investigation involves tracing the scam from token creation through liquidity removal. We identify the deployer wallet, document when and how liquidity was removed, trace the extracted BNB through subsequent transactions, and identify exchange deposits for potential recovery. BNB Chain's high rug pull volume means we handle these cases frequently.
What makes BNB Chain scams different to investigate?
BNB Chain has lower fees enabling more frequent transactions and more complex obfuscation patterns. Scammers often split funds across many wallets and use multiple hops before reaching exchanges. We're experienced with BSC-specific patterns and maintain comprehensive labeled address databases for the BNB ecosystem.
Can you trace tokens that went through multiple PancakeSwap swaps?
Absolutely. We routinely trace funds through dozens of consecutive swaps—scammers often convert through multiple tokens attempting to obscure the trail. Each swap is decoded with accurate amounts, and we follow the complete path regardless of how many intermediate tokens are used.
Do you support PancakeSwap on multiple chains?
Yes, we cover PancakeSwap deployments on BNB Chain (BSC), Ethereum, Arbitrum, zkSync Era, Polygon zkEVM, Base, Linea, and opBNB. We can trace activity across all chains and follow funds that bridge between networks.
How do you handle BSC token standards in investigation?
We fully support BEP-20 tokens including those with non-standard features like reflection mechanisms, auto-liquidity, and transfer fees. These features are common in BSC tokens and require special handling for accurate amount tracking.
