This has still nothing to do with the language or kernel exploits. Only code execution on a valuable host matters.

You could make a malicious Rust crate that on installation runs a Python shell and injects JavaScript into your browser to extract crypto wallets. There even seems to be a significant overlap of Rust devs/crypto fans.

Also script kiddies don't do social engineering and blackmarket crypto selling, that's 100% professional crime territory. Real-life script kiddie attacks I've seen were more like hacking an ecommerce site and adding bananas as currency.
