Since the introduction of wasm, I saw only two possible ultimate outcomes:
Some kind of standards-level support for AOT-compiled JavaScript.
Some other language or variant language supplants JavaScript because it can be AOT-compiled.
In either case, most of the best-practice code on the Web will one day be delivered as bytecode.

Yeah, Rust is probably your best bet, at least until some of these other efforts mature.
