I think, it's a good language to learn, because it tries to get on a performance level with C/C++ and still delivers some high level features that you wouldn't expect from such a language.
Sure, some parts like lifetimes are often more cumbersome than simply writing a few lines of JavaScript, but on the other hand you get stuff like pattern matching and powerful macros, which are missing in JavaScript.
I think Rust is a serios contender to system programming langauges and if it gets a bit more sugary on a syntactical side of things, it could even take some use-cases away from scripting languages. Rusts integration with WebAssembly could help a great deal here.
