I don't know. Every startup I've ever worked at has used a dynamic language and most of them have been successful.

I know many disagree with me, but I've used a lot of typed languages (Swift, Typescript, C#, Java, etc.) and a lot of dynamic languages (Python, Ruby, Elixir, etc.) in my 30+ year career and I'm still not convinced that typed vs. dynamic is as big a deal as some make it out to be.
