Aerodrome (AERO) Rockets to 6-Month Peak: The Fuel Behind the Rally
Aerodrome's native token AERO just blasted past resistance—hitting heights not seen since February 2025. Here's what's firing up the charts.
DeFi's dark horse finds its stride
While traditional finance still debates 'blockchain utility,' AERO's 180-day surge proves protocols with real yield mechanics can defy bear markets. No investment bankers required.
Liquidity flywheel spins faster
Ve(3,3) incentives are doing their thing—TVL upticks suggest liquidity miners are dumping rewards right back into the pool. Reflexivity at work.
Roadmap rumors swirl
Whispers of cross-chain expansions and governance upgrades have traders front-running announcements. As usual.
Six months is an eternity in crypto. AERO's comeback either signals DeFi's resilience... or another pump before the inevitable 'reversion to mean.' Place your bets.
AERO Crypto Flying High With 60% Price Spike
This explosive rally, seen by the 60% price spike in less than a week, has effectively positioned Aerodrome as the next crypto project to explode in DeFi and across the crypto ecosystem. From the daily chart, AERO crypto easily broke above the double top of June and July, where resistance stood at $1, a psychological level.

The uptrend will likely continue this week since buyers are in the driving seat and bears stand no chance of reversing the sharp expansion. As long as buyers defend $1, there could be opportunities to load the dips, targeting $2 and December 2024 highs of around $2.4 in the coming sessions.
This projection is not far-fetched. Presently, Aerodrome is a top DEX on Base, an ethereum layer-2, and the uptick in AERO crypto prices is fueled by a confluence of multiple factors. Coupled with favorable crypto and DeFi laws in the United States, the path of least resistance for AERO crypto is northwards.
Coinbase To Incorporate Aerodrome and Base DEXes
Over the weekend, Coinbase, one of the world’s largest centralized exchanges with over 100 million users worldwide, rolled out the red carpet for DEXes running on Base.
In a statement, Coinbase said it was weaving DEXes on Base into its app. This announcement means that millions of Coinbase users can now trade AERO and other Base tokens directly on the centralized exchanges without sweating.
The deal means no clunky wallets for users keen on swapping on Aerodrome, provided they are Coinbase clients. What’s cool about this integration is that there is no need for separate apps.
Being the largest DEX on Base, the Coinbase announcement effectively gave the DEX a front-row seat in DeFi, explaining what AERO is powering higher, effortlessly clearing resistance levels.
What’s more? Coinbase One subscribers get to trade on Aerodrome without paying a fee.
Additionally, those who lock 2,500 AERO score another 30% boost in staking rewards and trading perks, an incentive that makes holding AERO a yield-generating token, fueling the recent buying frenzy.
Flashblocks Rollout Through BASE Behind AERO Price Pump?
However, Aerodrome isn’t just riding and coasting on Coinbase’s coattails. Last month, Aerodrome integrated Flashblocks, a feature in Base that seeks to further crank up transaction speeds by up to 10X.
Base, being an Ethereum layer-2, is designed to keep fees low and process transactions faster. The integration of Flashblocks means Base now delivers near-instant transactions without sacrificing accuracy.
This integration translates to a more enhanced user experience for traders. Specifically, liquidity providers now rake in bigger profits because the slippage is way lower.
Because of Flashblocks, Aerodrome is now processing more volume and growing its total value locked (TVL). According to DefiLlama, Aerodrome posted over $20 billion in DEX volume in the past 30 days, generating over $17 million in revenue from trading fees in the process.

The number will likely grow as DeFi finds adoption, boosted by the Coinbase integration.
