@Aerodrome dominating on
@base.
Recent days have seen it push $700m in volume while
@Uniswap sat around $480m, and it has held the majority share of Base DEX activity for a long time.
The real difference shows up in the numbers: $100k daily revenue going 100% straight to veAERO holders instead of staying with the protocol or getting diluted.
That model turns the token into actual yield backed by real swaps, with voters directing emissions exactly where volume is happening.
Uniswap has the brand and multi-chain reach, but on Base itself Aerodrome wins on incentives, capital efficiency, and holder alignment.
Still super bullish on aerodrome-finance:native and Base long term — the economics here are just built different.
