Dromos Labs Unites Aerodrome and Velodrome into Aero, Launches Multi-Chain DEX

Published at 2025-11-13 17:47:10

Dromos Labs on Nov. 13, 2025 unveiled Aero, a single trading infrastructure designed to replace and merge its Aerodrome DEX on Base and Velodrome on Optimism while expanding to additional Ethereum-compatible chains. The move folds two established AMM platforms into one unified system, aiming to streamline user experience and create a more cohesive protocol architecture across networks.

The consolidation could reduce liquidity fragmentation and improve trade execution for users and LPs, while positioning Dromos for broader multi-chain growth. Market participants will watch for rollout timelines, migration mechanics and any governance or token adjustments affecting AERO holders. Dromos Labs framed Aero as a major infrastructure step; further technical and operational details are expected as the project proceeds.
