Dromos Labs launches Aero after merging two major L2 DEXs
Dromos Labs said on Nov. 12 that Aerodrome and Velodrome will be merged into a unified decentralized exchange called Aero, bringing liquidity from Base, Optimism, Ethereum mainnet and Circle’s Arc chain into one hub. The new protocol will operate under the AERO identifier and is positioned as a cross-L2 venue to streamline swaps and capital efficiency across major rollups and the mainnet.
For users and liquidity providers, the move could mean tighter spreads, simpler multi-chain routing and fewer fragmentation costs as pools and incentives consolidate. Market participants will be watching migration mechanics, token economics and governance details that Dromos Labs must publish next; those specifics will determine how quickly liquidity and trading volume shift to Aero and how existing Aerodrome and Velodrome stakeholders are compensated.
