Aerodrome Finance is replacing its weekly voting system with a live allocation mechanism for AERO token rewards.​

Key Changes:

  • sAERO holders will allocate rewards to liquidity pools in real time, rather than through weekly votes
  • Exchange revenue will flow to stakers as it accrues, eliminating the weekly distribution cycle
  • Allocations can be adjusted frequently, with rewards and revenue redirecting instantly

This shift moves away from retrospective voting toward dynamic, conviction-based allocation.​ The change aims to make reward distribution more responsive to market conditions and staker preferences.​
