Today, we’re announcing that we’re partnering with Dromos Labs to bring Aerodrome—the MetaDEX and universal routing layer for cross-chain liquidity—to Syndicate Network in 2026 as part of their publicly shared plans for expansion.

This partnership will connect Aerodrome’s MetaDEX with Syndicate Network’s programmable sequencing layer, introducing a new foundation for how decentralized markets coordinate and scale. Together, they make it possible for liquidity, execution, and value flow to move seamlessly across chains, and for DEXs to scale in a new way by serving many chains through atomic sequencing.

How DEXs Evolve with Syndicate Network

Aerodrome is expected to launch on Syndicate Network in early 2026, beginning with its deployment on Commons Chain which serves as the Syndicate Network’s hub for staking and emissions.

Aerodrome’s MetaDEX connects liquidity across networks through a shared routing layer that finds the best path for every trade, no matter where the pools live. When deployed on Commons Chain, Aerodrome will be able to sequence trades alongside other appchains while the Syndicate Network guarantees atomic inclusion.

Syndicate Network can coordinate transactions across multiple chains within the same block—ensuring atomic inclusion even when those transactions span different appchains. This design allows DEXs to scale horizontally, extending the same liquidity, routing, and sequencing logic across many chains without fragmenting markets or state. Users gain access to deeper, unified liquidity, and builders can deploy once and serve many chains. Every appchain benefits from shared coordination at the sequencing layer.

This deployment also creates a new playground for mechanism design—where projects can experiment with how sequencing, routing, and block-building logic distribute value and incentives across participants. Syndicate-powered chains can customize block ordering to minimize slippage, optimize performance, or design entirely new rules that serve their networks and communities.

Connecting Ethereum Through Shared Liquidity and Execution

By launching on Syndicate Network, Aerodrome doesn’t just bring deeper liquidity to one chain—it opens access to Syndicate’s entire network of applications and purpose-built chains.

Liquidity can now move fluidly between chains, so every new appchain built on Syndicate can plug into a shared pool of liquidity and execution from day one. The network becomes easier to participate in, easier to build on, and stronger with every additional appchain that joins.

At the same time, customizable sequencing rules give each chain the ability to shape how value flows through those markets. Commons Chain and future appchains can experiment with block-building logic that maximizes revenue, reduces slippage, or aligns rewards with tokenholders—capturing more value than off-the-shelf sequencing systems ever could.

This is the foundation for a new kind of financial infrastructure: one where execution, value flow, and coordination all live onchain—fully programmable and fully connected.

Custom Block Building for Fairer, More Aligned Markets

Custom block building opens the door to new forms of value creation across the network.

By designing how transactions are ordered and included, Commons Chain can shape how markets behave—capturing value that benefits users and tokenholders alike. Some forms of MEV, like arbitrage, help keep markets efficient; others, like sandwich attacks, harm users. With programmable sequencing, Syndicate-powered chains can begin to separate the two—enabling the MEV that improves the system while filtering out what doesn’t.

Early experiments could include ordering blocks based on the amount of veAERO or SYND staked, directing fees to tokenholders, or introducing entirely new incentive models that reward positive network behavior. These ideas are still early, but they point toward a future where block building itself becomes a mechanism for communities to design fairer, more aligned markets.

The First Step Toward a Network of Economies

Syndicate’s mission is to build a network where communities define and direct the systems that power their economies—where infrastructure is not just open, but programmable, and where participation shapes how value moves and grows.

Bringing Aerodrome to the network marks a major step toward that vision. It shows how atomic sequencing can become a foundation for coordination—linking liquidity, computation, and value through onchain logic instead of centralized intermediaries.

The next era of DeFi won’t be built on shared rollups or isolated chains. It will be built on connected networks that coordinate through sequencing—where every appchain, market, and participant moves as part of a larger whole.
