Or Rust

You think those script kiddies know Rust?

No, but they want to seem cool

Rust is not a language I'd use for financial apps, but it's not a bad language. So I doubt that they'd use it. Musk is of a generation where he'd probably tell them to use PHP. Or if he listens to the twenty-something bros around him, maybe it'd be Dart, which is another decent language that's not well suited to the problem domain.
