Aerodrome: Base Chain's Liquidity Hub

What is Aerodrome?

Aerodrome is a fork of Velodrome V2, deployed on Base (Coinbase's L2). It quickly became Base's #1 DEX by TVL and volume, serving as the primary liquidity layer for the exploding Base ecosystem. Aerodrome uses the same ve(3,3) tokenomic model — lock AERO for veAERO, vote on emissions, earn trading fees and bribes.

As Base became the home of Coinbase's onchain activity (cbBTC, cbETH, USDC) and the memecoin supercycle (BRETT, DEGEN, TOSHI), Aerodrome's volumes surged — at peak exceeding $1B daily and generating millions in weekly fees for veAERO holders.
