Dromos Labs Launches Aero, a Unified Decentralized Trading Platform
15 Nov
Summary
- Dromos Labs unveils Aero, a new decentralized exchange platform
- Aero will replace and merge Dromos' existing Aerodrome and Velodrome platforms
- Aero aims to become a central liquidity hub for the broader Ethereum ecosystem
In a major move, Dromos Labs, the core developer behind decentralized exchanges Aerodrome and Velodrome, has announced the launch of Aero, a unified trading system that will replace and merge its existing platforms. As of 2025-11-15T01:31:00+00:00, Aerodrome is the leading exchange on Base by volume and fees, and with Aero's expansion to Ethereum mainnet in the second quarter of 2026, as well as Circle's Arc, Dromos Labs aims to position the platform as a central liquidity hub for the broader ecosystem.
Aero, which is set to bring faster and cheaper fees onchain, will focus on Base as its central hub, while extending liquidity and trading capabilities to other Ethereum chains. "Just as the world came online, it is now coming onchain. Aero is at the vanguard of a financial system better, faster, and cheaper than the incumbent," said Alexander Cutler, the CEO of Dromos Labs.
Alongside Aero, the company has also revealed METADEX03, the latest version of its MetaDEX operating system. The upgrade introduces a dual-engine architecture designed to reduce value leakage and route all protocol revenue back to users. One standout feature of the upgrade is Slipstream V3, which embeds a Maximimal Extractable Value (MEV) auction directly into the AMM, allowing the protocol to internalize value typically captured by arbitrage bots.
