Why Rust?
Rust is the world's most loved language for a reason: it combines the speed of C++ with memory safety that prevents 70% of common security vulnerabilities. In the Web3 world (Solana, Polkadot, NEAR), Rust is the gold standard for writing secure Smart Contracts.
Why Security Matters in Web3
In traditional software, a bug might crash an app. In Web3, a bug can lead to the permanent loss of millions of dollars in seconds. This is why Rust's strict compiler is your best friend.
