Know The Best Programming Languages To Trade In The Blockchain World!

"All you need to outline the answers to such questions beforehand". When looking to develop your blockchain project, there are a lot of things you need to consider before stepping into the process.
  • What type of blockchain project do you want to develop?
  • Whether it's a public blockchain, consortium or private blockchain?
  • Whether to hire an in-house team of blockchain developers or an offshore blockchain development company?
  • Whether to start the development from scratch or use a white label solution?
One of the most important things is to decide what are the best blockchain programming languages and which would be the most beneficial of them for blockchain development.

So, to help you get answers to the above questions we'll keep writing, however, in this article, we've outlined best blockchain programming languages for blockchain development to make it easy for you to choose one of them.

The languages listed below are some of the trending tools of the trade right now in the Blockchain world:
1) C++:
C++ is one of the most used languages for programming and has been around for a while. Although it is mainly used for high-octane tasks, it also enables developers to understand the hardware itself. Thus, making it popular for uses such as computer graphics and embedded systems.

Created by Bjarne Stroustrup, it was an addition to the C language and aimed to have the efficiency and flexibility of it but with some key differences. The main distinction between C and C++ is that the former is process-oriented, while the latter is object-oriented.

It means that, in C++, the functions and data are bundled into one small package called â??objectsâ?? so that created objects can be easily called for reuse in other programs, thus, hugely reducing the coding time. Indeed, this language provides effective management of resources and excellent control over memory.
Also, Blockchain requires users and miners to coordinate and operate simultaneously and systematically. So, to help them achieve this goal, C++ creates applications that not only coordinate with endpoints but also executes their interaction speedily. That's why blockchain projects like Ripple and Bitcoin are written in C++.

2) Simplicity:
It's a blockchain programming language that enables blockchain developers to code more human-centric smart contracts.

Simplicity was created with an aim to enhance basic cryptocurrency languages like Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) and Bitcoin Script. Bitcoin's smart contract language, Bitcoin Script is low-level and requires a thorough understanding of Bitcoin.

It utilizes static analysis- a technique that allows a universal algorithm to assess the cost of executing any Simplicity Program- to avoid the halt of programs due to the exhaustion of gas during the analysis. That's how simplicity makes it way easier and faster to write smart contracts.

3) JavaScript:
Java is the heart of the worldwide web. Some even argue that it's equally crucial language as are HTML and CSS. It's mostly used in creating highly interactive web pages.
As per a survey in 2018, JavaScript is the most used language on the hosting and software development website, Github. JavaScript consists of a few libraries and frameworks like jQuery, React, Angular and Node, these are known for driving modern web development.
Why has it become so popular?
It's because the language is excellent in managing asynchronous actions, making a suitable alternative for blockchain development. JavaScript can easily manage communication between the different nodes of blockchain set up at different places.

3) Python:
Similar to JavaScript, Python is also easy to learn and a standard entry in the programming world, mostly for data scientists and analysts. Python boasts a large, active community that released libraries like SciPy, NumPy, and Pandas for various applications related to maths, science, and engineering.

Python is mainly known for crunching numbers- using large datasets and analyzing, processing and visualizing them. Thus, it's used mostly for data-driven industries like finance and internet of things.

4) Solidity:
Solidity is a high-level, contract-based one of the best blockchain programming languages gaining significant traction in the blockchain world.

Its script is similar to those listed above and follows the theories like variables, functions, and classes of them. While it has many similar advantages to language like Simplicity, solidity is designed mainly for the Ethereum blockchain network. Solidity enables programmers to write higher-levels of code that can be compiled down into low-level machine language.
