Julia has already proven its strength in areas like scientific computing, AI, and financial modeling — but can it also play a role in the next generation of blockchain applications?
For example:
- Smart contract auditing requires high-performance static analysis tools.
- Crypto exchange development demands fast and secure transaction processing.
- Decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms rely on advanced math and simulations to manage risks.
Given Julia’s speed (close to C) and its ecosystem for data-heavy tasks, could it be positioned as a strong choice for building components of blockchain infrastructure — perhaps even crypto exchanges?
I’d love to hear from the Julia community on whether anyone has experimented with blockchain-related projects in Julia. Are there packages or initiatives worth exploring?
Context: At Pixel Web Solutions, we work as a custom blockchain development company, and we’re curious whether Julia could become part of our blockchain/crypto exchange stack for performance-critical components.
