It’s looking like LK-99 is confirmed. Everything just changed. WE ARE SO FUCKING BACK. image

Yikes … sooooo much change in the next … well I was gonna say decade but better make it year … year and a half?
Apparently the original paper only reveals 80% of the material and processes needed for replication. This is theoretical confirmation. We should see legit replication soon.
As long as it doesn’t produce so much growth that they’re able to get budgets undercut control and reduce debt. But as much as I loathe the state, them adverting any kind of disaster and taking responsibility is not such a bad outcome. If the entire population is considerably wealthier, then there’s just less of a need for the state to “fix” things.
This is the theoretical basis for superconductivity in Cu-doped Lead Apatite. Isolated flat bands at the Fermi level is a hallmark of superconducting crystals. LK99 has it.

No idea 🤷‍♂️ I just go with the flow 😂 Something something superconductor hype is back!! Massive societal transformations if true.

Didn’t Tesla harness free energy over 100 years ago? Hashrate going to infinity once other concealed energy sources get rediscovered🙏💪⚡️⚡️⚡️

Having a plausible mechanism is incredibly hype. Even if LK-99 doesn't turn out to be super useful itself, the possibility space just opened up
It is a big deal, but it won't change the world tomorrow. Will take time to become a scalable reality. Maybe a decade IMO.
