Learn how to use pancakeswap for bnb to busd yield farming. You will learn how to become a liquidity provider on PancakeSwap and provide liquity to BNB BUSD pair. Yield Farming in Farms is a great way to earn CAKE rewards on PancakeSwap. Farming pool require you to stake two tokens to get LP Tokens, which you then stake in the Farm to earn rewards. This lets you earn CAKE while still keeping a position in your other tokens! Yield farming takes a little work to get set up. You’re going to need some "LP Tokens" to enter into a Farm with. Farms can only accept their own exact LP Token. In my example, the BNB-BUSD Farm will only accept BNB- BUSD LP Tokens. To get the exact LP Token, you'll need to provide liquidity for that trading pair.
ROI on Pancakeswap
The ROI (return on Investment) on my example of BUSD-BNB pair as follows (refer to video shown below): APR including LP rewards is 50.17%. Base APR (yield only) is 19.0%. Normalized for CAKE rewards for $1000 is for 1 day time frame it is 0.05% ROI and with CAKE per $1000 is 0.04%. For 7 days ROI is 0.36% with CAKE per $1000 is 0.28%. For 30 days ROI is 1.57% and CAKE per $1000 is 1.22%. For 365days or APY is 20.92 ROI and 16.28% for CAKE per $1000. LP rewards of 0.17% trading fees distributed proportionally to token staked among LP token holders.
Transferring BNB from Binance to Metamask Wallet
BNB is a Binance exchange coin. For this you need to have funds in your Metamask wallet connected to Binance Smart Chain. You have to convert BNB to BEP20 token. I send BNB from Binance US exchange to Binance Chain Wallet as BEP2 and use Binance Chain Wallet and convert to BEP20. I will provide link below on how to convert BNB to BEP20 BNB on Metamask wallet. I used BEP20 BNB on Metamask wallet to buy BUSD to swap BNB into BUSD. Then, I added liquidity to PancakeSwap BNB / BUSD pair.

Funds from you Metamask wallet will be used to pay for gas fees. I kept the default gas price of 5 Gwei with gas limit of 232796. The total fee was 0.10 USD.
