The enigma of Token Cake
Despite the operational success, Token Cake has not followed the same trajectory. During June, its price remained mostly stable, around 2 dollars per unit, with a peak of $ 2.9 and a minimum of $ 1.9, as seen in the following graph.

If market conditions and macroeconomic environment accompany, Cake could take offcapitalizing the impulse of Pancakeswap.
