Building a unikernel that runs WebAssembly – part ...
Probably to expand where you WASM can go: in the browser, in a docker container, and now in a lightweight OS that could go on an embedded device.

One day it can even run on SIM cards and Visa/Mastercard chips!

True but can’t Web Assembly also be non-GC’d?
