Just FYI, the market for C++ is excellent and has been for years, but I've yet to receive any well paid Rust project offer. My impression is that most people working with Rust are idealists (and not businesspeople) and the salaries reflect that.

Rust is pretty popular among crypto trading firms and those tend to pay very well.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't most crypto trading firms (which aren't ponzi schemes in some form) pay well because they are usually short (<10 year) lived enterprises that receive a lot of initial hype before receding into the background after rewarding the entrepreneurs with above-average compensation plans? As far as I know, most such companies fail shortly after they run out of venture capital

C++ consulting or actual full time jobs?
