Bitcoin is a consensus critical system.
We have already had consensus problems between Bitcoin Core-versions, rewriting everything in another language would expose us to even greater risks, and moving to a language like Python I see no benefit whatsoever.

I'm proposing re-writing bitcoin codebase in Python for improving pre and post merging abilities, faster operations and better understandability. Python is a fast language with C support, it is good with hashing things, it has a good syntax and everyone can read /  understand it unlike C++.

I am willing the coordinate the transformation operation and i believe it would be really good the get rid of C++.
