16) Finally, there's SRM: the Serum token, a SPL (Solana based) token that powers Serum. 100% of net fees go to a burn of SRM, holders get discounts on fees, and SRM can be staked on nodes to help optimize the network's performance.

17) And, my favorite twist, MegaSerum (MSRM): 1,000,000 SRM tokens stacked together, with limited supply and bonus rewards. All of this will wield funds to build the ecosystem and a specialized governance model to support Serum.

18) We hope you are as excited about Serum as we are. Or at the very least, we hope you give it a shot. Serum, and SRM, will start rolling out over the next few weeks.

From the whitepaper- how does the SC contract on ETH parse the BTC blockchain? I assume via an oracle ? In the case of other projects its via oracle or incentivized node operators, not exactly 'trustless' tho. Also HTLCs are burdensome to deal with

HTLCs are a pain; we don't use them. For the 'oracle'--the awesome thing is that if two sources disagree on the BTC chain, the ETH/SOL smart contract can tell who's right (longer valid chain). So you can just let the 2 people in the dispute both submit, and the truth will win.
