Inside the Battle Between Aerodrome and Uniswap to Win DeFi

Описание: Can a scrappy crypto DEX with no VC funding actually challenge DeFi’s most dominant protocol?

In this episode of Coinage, Alex Cutler, CEO of Dromos Labs, breaks down why Aerodrome believes it can overtake Uniswap — and what that battle means for the future of DeFi.

Cutler explains how Aerodrome is leveraging its dominance on Base, introducing a new fair‑launch system called Ignition, and expanding to Ethereum mainnet in 2026. The conversation dives deep into token launches, liquidity incentives, DAO economics, and why value distribution (not just fees) may determine the next DeFi winner.

This is a head‑to‑head comparison of two different DEX models — and a glimpse at how crypto’s next power shift could unfold.
