<p>Looks great. Any rough sense on when Cardano Rust will support smart contracts? Is it being worked on now? Would be amazing.</p>

Will the Cardano Rust project eventually allow you to write Smart Contracts?

No, the project in question is a toolbox that has been used in the Byron era of Cardano and could be considered outdated right now.

When someone [implements the Cardano node in Rust](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wu-M5PuG9h8&), it will have to have the support for Smart Contract to match the ledger specification.
