Can Solana Seize Marketshare From Ethereum With Serum‪?‬ Unchained

Sam Bankman-Fried, the CEO of FTX and Alameda Research,  and Anatoly Yakovenko,  the co-founder and CEO of Solana Labs, discuss the Project Serum ecosystem that they are building on the Solana blockchain, and the unique approach to scaling the Solana blockchain is taking.
In this episode, they talk about:
their backgrounds, and how they became involved in crypto
why Solana takes a different approach to scaling and how it is implemented
why they think a relatively lower number of nodes is sufficient to protect from attacks or collusion
what the vision for Solana is, who they see using it, and how Serum fits into that vision
why they think there haven’t been more crypto projects migrating to Solana yet
Solana’s proof-of-history algorithm and how it works
how Solana plans to attract DeFi developers
why Serum was made interoperable with Ethereum
the types of traders they are hoping to attract with Serum, and what their experience will be like on the platform
why Project Serum is an ecosystem and not just an order book exchange
how high-frequency trading firm Jump Trading came to adopt Serum
how Serum will manage trading tokens from different chains
the purpose of Serum’s two tokens, SRM and MSRM
and what’s in store for Project Serum in the future
