This time, straight from a patent granted to a blockchain company, with no accompanying paper or proof.
Edit: after reviewing the patent, and as pointed out by @floofloof@lemmy.ca, this is an incredible amount of BS. The patent’s initial date is Feb 2020, issue date Dec 2021. It has no proof, because it claims to speculatively apply a possible theory by someone else, onto how to make a flexible Type II semiconductor out of a Type I semiconductor, in case this ever happens to be possible with that theory. Basically a patent troll waiting to see if someone happens to make possible the elements they’ve used in the patent, then jump in and claim an application.
Honestly, didn’t know speculative patents like this were possible.
sigh I guess it’s just cool to claim to have found room-temperature superconductors this month. I wouldn’t trust anything coming from a blockchain company regardless but making such an outlandish claim would be comical if the intended purpose of filing this patent wasn’t almost certainly to patent troll anyone they can while people are interested in trying to replicate the claims of the Korean paper
