What the data says about AERO
AERO is Aerodrome Finance's token — and Aerodrome is not just another DEX, it is the central liquidity hub of Base: the ve(3,3) emissions engine (a Velodrome fork) that routes rewards to pools by veAERO voter preference, making it the venue where most serious Base liquidity is deposited. The contract 0x940181a94a35a4569e4529a3cdfb74e38fd98631 is the canonical Base deployment; our September 14, 2026 read shows $1.4 million in the tracked pools themselves — a separate number from the far larger volume the exchange routes daily.
The honest shape: AERO's price is a bet on the emissions flywheel — votes direct emissions, emissions attract liquidity, liquidity attracts volume, volume attracts votes. Flywheels run beautifully in both directions, and a token whose demand depends on perpetual emissions demand carries reflexivity risk in full. The ve-lock does damp the circulating float, which is the honest counterweight.

Is AERO a safe token?
As of the 2026-09-14 snapshot, AERO scores 80/100 (grade B) on HostDeFi's on-chain read — based on its unconfirmed mint authority, unconfirmed freeze authority, liquidity of $1.43M. That grades contract and market structure, not price direction — a clean read is not a guarantee, so re-scan before trading, since on-chain state can change.
Can you sell AERO, or is it a honeypot?
Our Base read covers market structure, not sell-side contract behaviour like honeypots or transfer taxes, as of 2026-09-14. Before assuming you can exit freely, run the live scan above — it reads the contract directly.
Who holds most of AERO?
Per-wallet distribution for AERO wasn't resolved in the 2026-09-14 snapshot. Run the live scan, which reads holder concentration directly from the chain.
Can AERO's supply be inflated?
This snapshot grades market structure only — contract-level supply controls on Base aren't assessed here yet. Run the live scanner, which reads the contract in real time.
What is the AERO contract address?
The AERO contract address on Base is 0x940181a94a35a4569e4529a3cdfb74e38fd98631. Always verify a token by its contract address, not its name or ticker — scam clones copy tickers, but the address is unique.
Where can you buy AERO safely?
Run the live on-chain scan at the top of this page first; if AERO clears, you can swap it here directly. Whatever venue you use, match the contract address (0x940181a94a35a4569e4529a3cdfb74e38fd98631) exactly before trading — copying the ticker is how clone scams catch buyers, and the address is the one field they can't fake.
