Developers can leverage proven frameworks and compile code in various languages, like Rust & Go with the potential future addition of C and C++.
excuse me -- smart contracts in imperative domain programming languages? and... C of all things?
the whole reason E, Goblins, etc are DSLs is because smart contracts have very specific safety requirements that normal languages aren't really designed around.
C... is not meant to be used for this...
@ariadne can’t wait for the eventual web3isgoingreat.com headline about $20 million in [insert currency] being stolen due to a buffer overflow exploit
