Velvet Capital Migrates Protocol-Owned Liquidity to Aerodrome on Base

The O-USDC trading pool on Aerodrome Finance is now eligible to receive AERO token emissions. **Key Details:** - O Exchange ([o1_exchange](https://twitter.com/o1_exchange)) becomes the latest project to join Aerodrome's incentive program - The O-USDC pool will begin receiving AERO emissions to boost liquidity - This follows similar additions including CADD, ZEST, and MXNB pools in recent weeks Aerodrome operates as Base's central liquidity hub, using token emissions to incentivize liquidity providers.

Aerodrome is rolling out **Predictive Allocation**, a new mechanism designed to position liquidity where demand is expected, rather than where it has already occurred. The upgrade represents a shift in how decentralized exchanges manage liquidity distribution. Instead of reacting to trading activity after it happens, the system aims to anticipate market movements. **Key points:** - The mechanism attempts to forecast where trading demand will emerge - Liquidity providers could potentially capture more fees by being positioned ahead of market activity - Developers frame this as an evolution in onchain market structure The approach differs from traditional AMM models that allocate liquidity based on historical trading patterns. By incorporating predictive elements, Aerodrome is testing whether markets can become more efficient through anticipatory positioning.
