Aerodrome Finance: Aero launches across seven chains in multi-chain rollout - 21 Oct 2026

Aerodrome Finance announces a multi-chain launch for Aero, the merged Aerodrome and Velodrome protocol, scheduled for 21 October 2026. The deployment brings the protocol to seven chains: Base, Ethereum Mainnet, Arc, OP Mainnet, Ink, Robinhood Chain, and Arbitrum. Until now, Aerodrome has operated as a Base-native exchange and Velodrome on Optimism, so this release extends the combined protocol well beyond its original deployments.The expansion materially widens AERO's addressable market, since the protocol's liquidity, voting, and fee mechanisms become available on Ethereum, Arbitrum, and Robinhood Chain alongside its existing Base and Optimism presence. This repositioning case is defined at launch rather than phased in gradually, which concentrates attention on how liquidity migrates across the seven networks. Execution quality on each chain, including incentive alignment and governance coordination, will determine whether the unified Aero brand retains the depth it holds on Base.Aero is set for takeoff 🛫Launch date and details here:
