If you think the jvm is bad for dynamic languages, wait'll you hear about wasm!
In fact, I would expect the jvm to work much better for dynamic languages; not only does it already have a[1] gc, it has inline caching built in, which is frequently crucial for getting good performance in dynamic languages. (Though granted, as the niblings hint at, this requires type inference without invokedynamic.)
1. Arguably 'the'. I don't know of a platform with a better one.
