    Functional languages are prominent in blockchain especially. Blockchain is an increasingly popular technology with applications in many areas. The most common uses of the technology include Cryptocurrencies, banking/FinTech, and smart contracts. They all involve financial transactions that are time-sensitive and mistakes can be very costly. Functional languages can minimize these mistakes and therefore many blockchain and related applications are written in functional languages! For example, Mina and Tezos are written in OCaml. Cardano, Kadena and BlockApps are written in Haskell.
