ya i talk abt work a lot but hear me out. imo our case offers better models: . • how you build and earn as a team (alongside users).• how you define a protocol's success (make, don't take).• how you define stakeholders (expansively). i'm proud of how we're pushing org logic.

btw I hope ppl are noticing. see the amount of margin pickup from incumbents?. slap a frontend/brand on Aero’s pools and Base/Circle rails and beat Wise, which has mkt cap of like $10B. This is an actual business—who’s gonna build this?. we’re gonna do this over and over again.
EURC Advantage €✈️. Onchain currency swaps can deliver better execution than TradFi. Powered by @circle, Aerodrome, and @base, users can instantly swap USDC and EURC with virtually 0 slippage. A 25,000 USDC swap returns 1.5% more EURC than TradFi, on average.

yeah I’m obviously thrilled that velo and aero are getting the recognition we’ve worked so hard to earn. but what’s on my mind is how ppl showing up now have no idea about what we’ve all been through. will they ever learn the deepest lore in defi.

oh gee wow there's @AerodromeFi quietly in there. right there with a blessed L1 known for value distros to users, at 2/3 of the TVL—but giving 100% to veAERO holders vs a split between HLP, OI bonuses, and the assistance fund. Same tier as Solana and Tron too. Interesting.

emissions aren’t scary. they’re a constant redirection of resources toward people who are gonna grow aerodrome today. unlike your favorite VC unlock coin this isn’t a value transfer to insiders with one foot out the door. when done right, this outcome below is what you get.
Aerodrome's Sustainable Growth 🛫. Aerodrome's volume and fees continue to climb while AERO emissions steadily decline. Emissions -37%.Fees +5,560%.Volume +21,706%. veAERO voters receive 100% of the Total Rewards generated by the DEX and AERO incentives power @base's onchain

109
reminder to everyone that @AerodromeFi just might be the only team in the space that supports itself solely by using its products—not by selling its own token. we've long been proud of this fact, that not even the EF could say the same of itself. dogfooding is how we eat.
This is solid advice from @cobie. If you are building a product, you should always be doing two things to stay in touch:.1) Dogfooding your own stuff.2) Benchmarking it against competition. Focusing on the largest current uses cases makes sense.

@AerodromeFi was fully bootstrapped with no VC involvement. Big thinkers like @cbventures and @DeFianceCapital are taking a stand with their theses, putting their money where their mouth is in buying off the market, without advantages offered by private rounds. respect.

Aero and Velo allocated something like 90% of supply to the community. Completely bootstrapped, no VC unlocks, no team unlocks, no nothing. None of these shenanigans you're reading about today. Just doing the job—growing the onchain economy.
This is precisely how Velodrome and Aerodrome's incentives work. Our team have permanently locked our veVELO and veAERO allocations and farm, just like anyone opting into the system. No unlocks, no privilege, no misalignment, aggressive decentralization – just as defi should be.

I want @VelodromeFi and @AerodromeFi to win because I want the world to really look at what we’ve done and to start building more things following our example. decentralized systems can flip a lot of scripts and we’re laying out the playbook.
I want the Superchain to win because it is as far as I can tell the straightest line through which Ethereum wins.

ok this is silly. just list on aerodrome, it's basically equivalent to the 4th or 5th largest CEX without trying at this point.
I recently spoke with a Tier 1 project that raised close to nine figures. After wasting over a year of due diligence with Binance, they finally received a listing offer. Binance asked for 15% of their total token supply. Imagine paying $50–$100M just for a CEX listing. Not.

Took well over half a year to get RFGs on Optimism from idea to reality—proud to have taken part. Because of this, OP's going to be the first layer to subsidize audits, RPCs, frontends, and other infra. Congrats and thank you to everyone getting a grant

1/ Velodrome could become a major place in crypto to launch a project token. People are noticing how the flywheel bootstraps liquidity, but there's another reason there's immense potential here:. With Velodrome you can build a project treasury without selling any tokens.

Just realized @SynapseProtocol is up for RPGF. My last report documented Synapse getting 1mm OP in 2022 for bounties and building liquidity on Optimism. Instead of doing this, in March they sent 850k to Cumberland to deposit on Binance. I think we should know what happened here.

here’s the big idea. to win, a decentralized system doesn’t need insiders, it needs users. so reward users, not insiders. with emissions. with value generated. with control of the system.

76
was Aerodrome the only one on this list to do so while returning 100% of all value generated to users?. AND it's top 5?. isn't this the bigger signal to builders and trojan horse for consumer adoption?.
Pumpdotfun is the fastest growing application by revenue in the history of the cryptoeconomy — $100M in revenue in just 217 days. Love it or hate it Pump is a massive signal to builders to build on Solana and a trojan horse for consumer adoption of blockchains.

team stays hungry, team keeps shipping til the job is done. we’re not following the typical pattern w token unlocks etc bc our intention is to win, not extract and ditch. everything else tends to fall in line for the long term.
It is amazing to watch Aerodrome grow. One thing that makes it exciting is the fact that there are no vesting tokens waiting to unlock, for team or VCs. There were no pre-sales or liquid token allocations, there will be no "exits". All incentives are aligned for the long term.

idk how many more ways to say we've shown founders a way to do this correctly. velo team eschewed the easy route and instead played to win. permalocked its allocation and pays the bills by farming alongside any other user. we have nothing to dump—we don't eat unless everyone does.

i respect the sentiment but this is an astonishingly bad take. claims of impact *do* have to be clearly backed in an application—wasn't here. and it would take me essays to describe the many ways badgeholders were generally *lacking* context, not in possession of asymmetric info.
I went to zuzalu. It exported a lot of good culture and learnings beyond the 500 people who were there. All of the research & education about public goods, longevity, cryptography, ZK, synthetic biology etc… those are all public goods that exported from zuzalu. I’m not saying.

this isn’t just about Aerodrome . it’s about what is now possible onchain on Ethereum L2s, on Base. If you can make it the best place to trade BTC—over CEXs—it can be the best place to trade anything. this is a 0-1 leveling up that people thought wasn’t possible for a long time.
Just 8h later, $cbBTC TVL has doubled to $40M on @AerodromeFi. Since launch, these pools have already delivered over $21M in additional volume for the DEX. While offering lower slippage than swapping for $wBTC on Uniswap on Mainnet. @base is now the best place to trade $BTC.

one of the most important threads you'll read this month. this should upend your thinking about where the action is in DeFi or on @base. bc if you're looking at charts Uniswap's been showing, what you're getting isn't the story they want to tell. read this or be stuck in the past.

@Boss0fBase they have a governance token - $OP. they have a reward and stimulus token - $AERO. and they have a value distribution token - $COIN. what would be the point of a Base token? They have all the benefits without any of the headache.

okay, what does this mean. 1) Superchain/Base thesis proving out.2) ve3,3 thesis proving out. both theses a few of us have wagered our careers on. take a second and think about what's happening here.
Aerodrome is now just $34M in volume away from flipping Uniswap's WETH / USDC volume on mainnet. And it is doing this with just 15% of the TVL. This is absolutely nuts. 🛫

These protocols are doing this with their hands tied behind their backs. this is without aggregators even being linked, MMs/arb bots being plugged in, automated liquidity managers being added. and it’s happening FAST. always underestimated, never beatenTM.
Velodrome and Aerodrome are over halfway to flipping UniV3 on @Optimism and @Base. They are generating more revenue than every other DEX in DeFi combined and some. They have more TVL than every other DEX on OP and Base and some. There has been a paradigm shift.

To my knowledge, this is the first example of an ecosystem grants program committing to offering smart contract audits. which is arguably some of the most if not *the* most impactful support a grants program can offer – hence the large allocation to this RFG.

if you squint real hard you can see last cycle’s giants. this isn’t shade—it’s more noting that we’re building on these older standards to make something genuinely different. our goal is for this to be something that lasts. oh, and aerodrome is doing this with no incentives.

Idt they'll be a passive partner, either—the beauty of our model is that when you get involved there's huge benefit you can deliver to other projects (eg those in your portfolio). Huge respect for Base and CV for envisioning the rising tide here - we expect others will follow.
The Base Ecosystem Fund, led by @cbventures, was launched to invest in the next generation of onchain projects building on @base. We're excited to announce that the Base Ecosystem Fund has market acquired a $AERO position. Together we'll build the future of @base.

And this is just the stuff ppl know about, us delivering on the things we say we will. Steady wins. Best, deepest team in crypto.
Yesterday, Velodrome did more volume than GMX. It is the largest protocol on Optimism, hosting more TVL than Uniswap, Curve, Beethoven X, and Kyberswap combined. Indeed, it is now 10th largest DEX in all of DeFi. The "Velodrome Model" is upending the DEX landscape. 👇.

look all I’m saying is that if the Ethereum Foundation is going to do nothing other than dump their ETH they can AT LEAST bridge to @base and use @AerodromeFi where they can access the most liquid, highest-volume marketplace for ETH worldwide. and then they can dump their ETH.

The contributorship to Aerodrome is run by a group of people who built Aerodrome. I get why ppl do this but credentialist nonsense is how you get to institutional rot, misallocation, and FTX-like disasters in an industry moving as fast as this is.
Hyperliquid Foundation is run by an IPhO Gold winner, Harvard graduate, Hudson River algo developer and quant. Already rich, he came back to the industry to make a change and take the market share from predatory centralized exchanges. Building a pretty good L1. And because of.

it’s not just a better token model. it’s a better business model. we’re doing what people believed DeFi could do.
