I think many people are trying to make Rust real deal and some of them make really good job. There was a guy who develops Linux ABI compatible kernel in rust, Tor is being rewritten in to Rust and some of the projects are just amazing.

I believe it will catch on as soon as people realize it's a C performance with modern syntax and memory safety mitigating most of the security flaws and bugs introduced by mismanaged memory.

I fell in love as soon as I saw descriptive scalar types like "i32".
