Ethereum works fine as a currency too (~15 sec per block, quite nice). It also works fine with simple contracts, it's the humans who aren't good enough (yet) to write bug-free code.

Bugs in software of various kinds cause billions of dollars worth of damage, deaths too. Yet I don't see people claiming it's the fault of C++.

You must be new here.

A major driving force behind the development of Rust is that exact claim.

I doubt software written in Rust has no bugs.

I don't think anyone is claiming that, it does however seem quite likely that it will have less.
