Rust and Go have their strengths, but also suffer from serious 
usability flaws, so I'm not sure they can become as predominant 
as C++ in the years to come.

At the moment, developing in Rust can be quite painful because of 
too much focus on its borrow checker, as the reference counting 
system is just a side feature, which is not deeply integrated 
into the language.

And Go suffers from its own problems, mainly related to the 
excessive limitation of the language features (no genericity, 
"fake" class inheritance, etc).

De facto they are already making room for another language to 
ultimately fill those gaps...

This may be Crystal, D or another yet to come language...
