For veAERO voters on Aerodrome / Base

Make your next veAERO vote better informed.

Votes and incentives change before an Aerodrome epoch closes. GaugeEdge is researching how to turn those changes into a practical allocation for your position. Explore the historical data and join the early-access list. The allocation tool is in development.

The problem

Optimizing veAERO votes by hand is a part-time job you do every week.

Comparing incentives, checking token liquidity and allocating a position takes work each week. Historical differences between pools give us a reason to investigate. Whether a usable recommendation improves your outcome still needs to be tested before the deadline.

01

The displayed return can change

The final day can move the board — vote waves dilute some pools, late-posted bribes lift others. Our research compares observations before ordinary voting closes with later observations and settled outcomes. What you see at vote time isn't what you settle at.

02

Bribes aren't worth face value

Rewards can arrive in tokens with very different liquidity. A big number in a thin token isn't a big number you can actually realize.

03

Miss a week, miss the rewards

Allocation has to be redone every epoch as bribes and votes shift. One skipped week is one week of rewards left on the table.

What we are building

One ranked Aerodrome allocation, every epoch, for your position.

The planned tool will compare observed rewards, estimate late changes and suggest allocations for a voter’s position. Today, this site provides historical research and an early-access reservation. You keep control of your votes on Aerodrome.

01

Observe the voting window

We are collecting observations before ordinary voting closes, as well as later research snapshots. The later data helps us study what changed; future recommendations must use information available with time left to vote.

02

Estimate value after costs

Liquidity, position size and transaction costs can change a ranking. We are testing these adjustments. The historical charts below show nominal USD values and do not yet represent realizable exit proceeds.

03

You cast the vote yourself

The planned allocation will account for your voting weight and a practical number of pools. You will review it and cast your own vote on Aerodrome. This early-access site has no wallet connection.

At your size

Set the dial to your position.

Compare the extra reward needed to cover the planned founding subscription with a historical reward scenario at your position size.

$4.38 / epoch

Additional reward needed to cover $19/month, averaged over 52 epochs a year. At this position size that is $0.18 per 1,000 votes each epoch, before any extra transaction costs. This is a break-even calculation, not an earnings forecast.

Historical scenarios, including dilution from added votes

Each scenario adds your votes to the recorded pool totals, reducing the reward per vote. The proportional split follows the recorded vote distribution. Nominal USD values exclude liquidity discounts and transaction costs. These are historical scenarios, not forecasts or allocations you can execute now.

Research question

Can the last hour become more predictable?

A post-cutoff snapshot can tell us what happened after ordinary voters had to decide. By pairing it with observations before the deadline, we can test whether earlier signals help predict the outcome. We have not yet established a reliable prediction advantage.

The questions you should be asking.

Is GaugeEdge custodial? Does it touch my wallet?

No. GaugeEdge never holds, moves, or has access to your funds, keys, or veAERO — there is no wallet connection anywhere, including on this page. The allocation tool is in development. This site shows historical research and accepts early-access reservations.

Where does the data come from?

Votes and reward quantities come from Aerodrome contracts through the Sugar SDK. USD figures use SDK prices from data retrieval, which may differ from prices at voting or payout. The chart states the epoch end date and coverage. See the methodology and downloadable data.

Why should I trust these numbers?

Treat them as historical observations with limitations. The chart filters pools below 0.1% of recorded votes. Its USD values are nominal, before liquidity adjustments and costs. Coverage depends on the pools collected. Our new evaluation compares strategies at the same observation time; it has not established a reliable live advantage.

I use a relay / auto-voter. Why would I need this?

Relays are a fair trade for hands-off voters: you delegate your voting power and accept whatever strategy the relay runs — optimized across its whole pool, not for your position. GaugeEdge is being designed for voters who want to review and cast their own allocation. A useful comparison with your relay will need the same epoch, position size and costs; a chart of the highest historical rates is not enough.

What does signing up commit me to?

Nothing. Reserving the founding price costs $0 today. You get one email when the private beta opens, and the $19/mo founding rate (vs $39/mo at launch) stays locked for as long as you keep your subscription. No spam, no wallet, and you can ignore the email.
