          It's a matter of personal preference, but I'd say Golang, because:




          • Node.js chaincode uses npm install at the time of container building, which is slow and might fail due to network problems, while Golang just compiles the source code without fetching anything.


          • Chaincode features are introduced to Golang chaincode first and then later on to other chaincode implementations.
