I will also add that NodeJs, just like js, has several cryptography failures, which is very complicated for a cryptocurrency wallet project.

Which is why building a website out of nodejs is such a bad idea. With the other reason being that you can't actually access the crypto functions from client-side JS, so you have to rely on polyfills which are not as secure, and may have their own vulnerabilities.

It is certainly not a programming language you want to use if there is an Advanced Persistent Threat or state actor among your list of potential adversaries (which applies to any crypto project that wants serious adoption).
