Like you mentioned above ORecordSerializerBinary is more modern 
serialization format

The binary schemaless serialization is an attempt to define a serialization 
format that can serialize a document containing all the information about 
the structure and the data, with no need of a external schema definition 
and with support for partial serialization/deserialization.

 
Its depend to how many versions of orientdb your client suppose to support
