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.

Meanwhile you can play a fun game on Solana:

Interesting, any more info on the 'cross chain capability' means between them ? Is it as simple as sending to a deposit address on ETH and getting credited with a token on Solana much like how renBTC works?

Yeah sort of like that, but:
a) fully trustless
b) also a cross-chain swap
The whitepaper has an illustration of a version of it: projectserum.com/serum_white_pa

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.

can it deal with off-chain assets?

It can deal with anything where a computer could figure out the truth. So that applies to blockchains and math and stuff, but not elections (Trump is not on the blockchain).
(Well sorta--ftx.com/trump-tokens)
