People love to talk price, & I get why. But let’s talk VALUE for a sec: @base DEXs are still doing about 2–3x less volume than the big boys on Solana and Ethereum mainnet… But, While others chase hype, @base is out here building, expanding, and actually pushing the idea of bringing the 🌍 on-chain. At the same time, @AerodromeFi (the main DEX on Base) has been teasing this idea of the “DeFi Mullet.” TradFi in the front. DeFi in the back. Basically: make it feel familiar & compliant up front for mainstream users, while the real DeFi magic happens under the hood. Now here’s where it gets interesting 👀 @AerodromeFi recently introduced @DromosLabs which, nothing confirmed yet by the core team, but all signs point to some sort of expansion or next phase in the ecosystem (We will know more at the NYC event on Nov, 12th). And the common thread? Perpetual Cyclist Services (PCS) - The parent company behind @AerodromeFi , @VelodromeFi , and now @DromosLabs . Earlier this year, PCS met with the SEC’s Crypto Task Force (yeah, that SEC) to discuss how decentralized exchanges & on-chain liquidity could operate within U.S. regulations. You can literally read the memo yourself: 🔗 They were there to proactively explaining how their AMMs, governance, & liquidity models work, & how they could align under Reg ATS and broker-dealer frameworks. That’s regulatory positioning. So, if we zoom out for a second: 🟦 @base → the fastest-growing chain, building the rails to bring the world onchain. 🚴‍♂️ @AerodromeFi → the liquidity hub, quietly preparing compliant DeFi infrastructure (maybe - pending confirmation from core team). 🧩 @DromosLabs could be the bridge between TradFi and DeFi. If this plays out the way it looks… we’re watching the blueprint for regulated on-chain markets being built right in front of us. So yeah, keep chasing charts if that’s your thing. But when the fastest-growing chain + its biggest DEX are literally sitting down with the SEC to figure out how to make this work legally and globally… You might wanna start asking yourself: Where’s the VALUE, anon? 🪿 - Goose Out.
