Promote with Leviathan NewsAerodrome is rolling out three protocol upgrades tuned for Base's flashblock environment (200ms sub-blocks): a dynamic fees module that sets distinct initial fees per block to create sub-block ordering demand, new gauge contracts with minimum staking times (~10 seconds) that forfeit rewards for non-compliance to deter MEV extraction, and metaswaps — cross-chain swaps built on Hyperlane launching in beta on Base with cbAssets before expanding to 12 EVM chains with USDC and ETH. Pool migrations start today (4/15) with a second wave deadline on 4/22, all positioning the DEX for the full Aero launch in July when Aerodrome and Velodrome merge under a single AERO token.
