Is it currently possible to develop smart contracts on Cardano with Scala?
Not yet. Someone (ex-Marlowe engineer from IO) is working on Scalus (https://github.com/nau/Scalus) as a possible Scala eDSL for Plutus.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing lucid and scalus you can also consider the following projects:
aiken - Cardano Smart Contracts
helios - Helios is a DSL for writing Cardano smart contracts. This library lets you compile Helios scripts and build Cardano transactions.
