Aerodrome Finance (AERO) is a decentralized exchange protocol built on the Base network, the Ethereum layer-2 ecosystem developed by Coinbase. It functions as an automated market maker (AMM), meaning it enables users to trade digital assets directly from liquidity pools rather than through traditional order books. The protocol is designed to operate as Base's central liquidity hub, routing trading activity and attracting pooled capital through an incentive system. Governance of the platform is carried out through a vote-lock model, in which participants lock the native AERO token in exchange for voting power and a share of the protocol's emissions. This mechanism aligns liquidity providers, traders, and token holders around decisions that shape fee distribution and reward allocation. Aerodrome builds on the architecture of Velodrome V2, inheriting its design for routing, incentives, and governance. The AERO token serves as both the governance asset and the central unit of the protocol's incentive engine, coordinating activity across the Base DeFi ecosystem and supporting a wide range of trading pairs provided by the community.
