Just one data point, but I did know about Graal/Truffle, but not about the smart contract development framework with the same name [1] :-)

Yeah, I’ve known about Graal/Truffle for years, and just heard about the smart contract thing today.

Same here. I suppose that if you're into the JVM, you'll know about Graal/Truffle... if you're into blockchain, you'll know about this other thing.

not sure why you were downvoted. I instantly thought of Truffle as it relates to smart contract work as well

same.

Note that Oracle were using the name for their language framework for years before the blockchain people also started using it, and also had peer reviewed publications using it... do people not Google potential names before picking one?
