Have you looked at Nubank? Largest neobank in the world by users and valuation, it's a clojure shop to such an extent they literally bought Cognitect

No affiliation, just a satisfied customer

There are examples of successful companies using any programming language. It doesn’t prove anything about the quality of the language. The world still succcesfully runs on COBOL. That is not a good enough reason to pick COBOL for your next project.

The difference here is that Nubank attributes part of their success to the use of Clojure.
