Aerodrome ($AERO) still looks insanely attractive here.
Key stats right now:
$1.5M rewards last epoch → **78M annualized** fees flowing to veAERO holders
~50% of supply max-locked (insane alignment, low sell pressure, ~3.7yr avg lock)
Market Cap: ~$364-368M | Price: ~$0.39-0.40
TVL: ~$373-375M | FDV ~$732-737M

In Q2 AERO will be multichain. Higher
