>> The hiring market is way better for Rust because it's not mainstream.
The ratio of C++/rust jobs where I am (EU country) is 5564/54. And these 54 jobs are mostly in cryptocurrencies.

edit: numbers say I'm wrong, C++ is more mainstream than C#, C is more mainstream than Java: https://www.tiobe.com/tiobe-index/. I mean I doubt this source (it seems to indicate objective-C, which is all but superseded by swift, is on the rise) but it's at least one datapoint.
This doesn't change the argument about scarcity in general, but it isn't true that the few jobs that are out there are only in crypto.
