Aero Cross-Chain DEX Launches October 21 with Seven Chains

Aero, the cross-chain decentralized exchange born from the merger of Aerodrome and Velodrome, has set October 21, 2026, as its launch date across seven EVM-compatible chains.

The deployment will span Base, Ethereum Mainnet, OP Mainnet, Arc, Ink, Robinhood Chain, and Arbitrum.

Aero functions as a unified liquidity layer, using MetaDEX03 technology to enable cross-chain token swaps through its Metaswaps feature.

The Aerodrome-Velodrome merger represents the unification of two protocols that already dominated their respective chains, with Aerodrome leading on Base and Velodrome holding a similar position on OP Mainnet.
