There's absolutely no chance that a company like Stripe would spend resources improving a language like Crystal, or even think about porting their current code base to it. If porting was what they wanted to do, Crystal would only be slightly higher than Ancient Greek on their list of potential languages. Not saying I don't like Crystal, but it makes ZERO business sense for Stripe, and they are after all a business, not a programming language improvement charity.
