Looked at this two years ago and found the marketing around JS contracts being “easier” a bit misleading. They introduced some new and unintuitive concepts in the runtime that I found extremely confusing and unhelpful. Solidity is easier to read and write imo. For cosmos, personally a lot more bullish on cosmwasm

Thanks for sharing that. Kinda reminds me of algorand’s marketing around a python implementation. Sounded GREAT until diving in.

I remember that, PyTeal! I think teal / avm was just way too low level and restrictive for devs. No fancy wrapper was gonna make it comparable to writing solidity. Do checkout Tealish though, it’s a newer and much more readable wrapper around teal / avm https://tealish.tinyman.org/en/latest/

Algorand is actually going native Python very soon. @kmacb.eth you meant PyTeal or native Python? Either way more people involved like @algofamily knows what’s up more with this but looks like the implementation looks good. I’ve personally always loved Solidity.

There is already PyTeal, Tealish, REACH (Javascript syntax), TEAL script (typescript), but we're getting real Python next month. (And another surprise language later this year) @kmacb.eth @vern @0xbob The hope is to onboard web2 devs with Python.
