Web3 Programming Languages: A Guide to the Most Popular Choices in 2023

Validated Individual Expert

If you’re interested in developing decentralized applications in the web3 era, you’ll need to become familiar with the programming languages used in this space. The web3 ecosystem has a variety of programming languages that are used for building decentralized applications, smart contracts, and other web3 applications.

In this article, we’ll take a look at some of the most popular web3 programming languages used in 2023, including Solidity, Rust, JavaScript, and Vyper.

Solidity:

Solidity is a high-level programming language used for writing smart contracts on the Ethereum blockchain. It is the most popular language for developing decentralized applications on Ethereum, which is currently the most widely used blockchain platform in the world.

Solidity is designed to be similar to JavaScript and can be used to write complex smart contracts that execute automatically when certain conditions are met. With Solidity, developers can create decentralized applications that run on the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM).

Rust:

Rust is a systems programming language that has gained popularity in the web3 ecosystem due to its speed, safety, and performance. It is a low-level language that is well-suited for building decentralized applications that require high performance and low-level control.

Rust is used for developing blockchain clients, runtime environments, and other core components of web3 systems. It is also used for creating decentralized applications on blockchain networks like Solana, which is designed to be a high-performance blockchain network.

JavaScript:

JavaScript is a popular programming language that is widely used for developing web applications. In the web3 ecosystem, JavaScript is used for developing decentralized applications that run in web browsers and on mobile devices.

With JavaScript, developers can create decentralized applications that interact with blockchain networks like Ethereum and Solana. JavaScript is used for developing front-end interfaces, as well as for interacting with smart contracts and other web3 components.

Vyper:

Vyper is a programming language that is similar to Solidity but is designed to be more secure and easier to audit. It is a relatively new language that is gaining popularity in the web3 ecosystem due to its focus on security and simplicity.

Vyper is used for developing smart contracts on the Ethereum blockchain and is designed to be easier to read and understand than Solidity. It is also designed to be less prone to errors and vulnerabilities than Solidity, making it a popular choice for developers who prioritize security.

Conclusion:

These are just a few of the most popular web3 programming languages used in 2023. Each language has its own strengths and weaknesses, and the choice of language will depend on the specific needs of the project and the preferences of the developer.

Whether you’re building decentralized applications on Ethereum, Solana, or other web3 blockchain networks, becoming familiar with these programming languages can help you develop high-quality web3 applications that are secure, scalable, and efficient.

Here are some appropriate links for the programming languages and platforms mentioned in the article:

  • The Bank of Japan is reportedly planning further interest rate hikes; some officials believe the neutral interest rate will be higher than 1%.

    according to insiders, Bank of Japan officials believe that before the current rate hike cycle ends, interest rates are likely to rise above 0.75%, indicating that there may be more rate hikes after next week's increase. These insiders said that officials believe that even if rates rise to 0.75%, the Bank of Japan has not yet reached the neutral interest rate level. Some officials already consider 1% to still be below the neutral interest rate level. Insiders stated that even if the Bank of Japan updates its neutral rate estimates based on the latest data, it currently does not believe that this range will significantly narrow. Currently, the Bank of Japan's estimate for the nominal neutral interest rate range is about 1% to 2.5%. Insiders said that Bank of Japan officials also believe there may be errors in the upper and lower limits of this range itself. (Golden Ten)

  • HSBC expects the Federal Reserve to refrain from cutting interest rates for the next two years.

    HSBC Securities predicts the Federal Reserve will maintain interest rates stable at the 3.5%-3.75% range set on Wednesday for the next two years. Previously, Federal Reserve policymakers lowered rates by 25 basis points with a split vote. The institution's U.S. economist Ryan Wang pointed out in a report on December 10 that Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell was "open to the question of whether and when to further cut rates at next year's FOMC press conference." "We believe the FOMC will keep the federal funds rate target range unchanged at 3.50%-3.75% throughout 2026 and 2027, but as the economy evolves, as in the past, it is always necessary to pay close attention to the significant two-way risks facing this outlook."

  • Institution: US AI companies face power pressures that will drive up operating costs.

    Benjamin Melman, Chief Investment Officer of asset management company Edmond de Rothschild, pointed out that American artificial intelligence companies are facing intense competition in terms of electricity costs. He stated that the current power capacity in the U.S. is insufficient to meet the growing demand of AI companies, and electricity prices are significantly higher compared to other countries. "The U.S. faces intense competition in electricity costs, which will drive up the operating costs of AI."

  • Institutions: The US dollar may face further pressure next year, with AI bubble and interest rate outlook being key risks.

    Benjamin Melman, CEO of asset management company Edmond de Rothschild, stated that the US dollar may face downside risks again next year. "If the market worries again about US interest rates or if the artificial intelligence bubble suddenly bursts, the US dollar will be at risk." With the Federal Reserve cutting interest rates, the US dollar has continued to weaken this year. The US Dollar Index (DXY) recently fell 0.05% to 98.59. In mid-September, the index hit a three-and-a-half-year low of 96.218.
