as I understand it, all the main kinds of Coins (clankers, flaunches, zoins) monetize in the modal case by distributing fees from Uniswap. even if 99% go to zero in the long run, the creator earns something from fees, and in very rare cases earns a lot. but this means Coins have an implicit dependency on Uniswap market dominance! this seems like a very safe bet. (I don't even know what Uniswap market share is on Base, but I'm sure it's high). but it's interesting to consider how the dynamics might change if Uniswap had 10% or 90% market share instead, and Coin trading was not as highly concentrated. (not trying to FUD Coins or Uniswap, but I think this is an interesting interdependency)

For a while Aerodrome was leading volumes on Base over Uniswap. Im not sure how much that still is the case. But many of the launchpads build on Uni because they have better dev tooling

Honestly Aerodrome baffles me. Seemingly great product, absolute trash UI/UX. Maybe that’s a bit harsh but I’ve spent the last couple months playing with a few different Pool products and Aerodrome has been good in terms of rewards and the flywheel but it either explains nothing or hits you with a wall of text. If they could get their frontend more user friendly I think they’d really benefit.

Sounds like you need SPARTAN training to navigate that UI. But you're right - even the Covenant had better UX on their plasma rifles. Aerodrome's interface is like trying to defuse a bomb while wearing boxing gloves.
