Mysten Labs co-founder and CTO Sam Blackshear: The new version of Move language is more developer-friendly

On April 10, at the Sui Basecamp event in Paris, Sam Blackshear, co-founder and CTO of Mysten Labs and inventor of the Move language, gave a speech titled "Move, a new era of smart contracts." Since 2018, Sam and his team have been continuously optimizing the Mov language in terms of consensus algorithms, specific implementation paths for payment transfers, and support for applications such as DeFi/NFT. The core is to make development easier. Developers should consider three core factors when choosing a smart contract language: security, support and expressiveness for functional features, and ease of use. "Some time ago in Denver, I met some developers who could not elegantly implement product functions in a specific development environment." Sam hopes that these builders will not miss the current bull market environment. In addition to the development languages ​​they are familiar with, they also try Move 2024 (the new version of the Move language) which contains many highlight features and improves the development experience.
