Large governance proposal queued

PancakeSwap's assessment for RD-F-101 — scored gray on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.

Evidence summary #

Signal partially inapplicable. No on-chain Governor contract detected (governor_address: null in data cache). Governance is Snapshot-only (cakevote.eth) — off-chain signaling only. RD-F-101 triggers on ProposalCreated events from on-chain Governor contracts. No such contracts exist for PancakeSwap. Admin execution is via team multisig (covered by RD-F-102). The April 2025 whale CAKE acquisition for voting power was unusual but does not trigger the flagged-pattern criteria (no calldata containing upgrade/admin-change selectors; no on-chain proposal with flash-loanable weight path).
