Dromos is the core contributing development company behind the MetaDEX, the underlying model that powers Velodrome and Aerodrome, two of the most innovative protocols in the Ethereum ecosystem.

Our team is unified in the belief that shared systems should create shared value. We stand against value extraction and concentration of power wherever it occurs, but especially when it comes to the critical infrastructure of modern society. And we believe there’s a better way to build it.

Our purpose is to build common infrastructure that delivers uncommon value. We do this through the development of decentralized financial products, designed to align incentives and maximize value distribution. By merging leading tech with economic innovation, we build systems that give all participants a greater stake in the new economy.
