Summary from the TLDR Crypto newsletter

Aerodrome Foundation is launching the Momentum Fund, an algorithmic buyback engine that acquires AERO tokens based on market volatility rather than fixed schedules or discretionary decisions. The system accumulates veAERO voting rewards during stable markets and scales buyback allocation proportionally when volatility exceeds historical averages. A pilot run beginning in Epoch 111 acquired 8.7 million AERO (averaging 670k per epoch), capturing 27.5% of all weekly emissions during peak volatility in Epoch 122. The Momentum Fund will consolidate the Public Goods Fund and Flight School programs while introducing buyback-and-burn functionality.
