Hey guys, we’re still looking for Senior Elixir developers

Hello. :wave:

Question: why Elixir for cryptocurrency stuff? Wouldn’t a stack be better written in Rust for the much greater speed and smaller system resources footprint?

I worked in the crypto area both with Elixir and Rust. Maybe we should meet up for a chat even though I’m not 100% sure that I’m looking right now. :smiley: It might be a useful exchange.

Pinged you.
