Nobody knows, it depends on a multitude of factors, but most likely this won't be the exact material which will have applications, I'm sure there is a much easier to fabricate related material which will be the first of a whole set of materials which act as superconductors at room temperatures.

Why be so sure about that? I really hope it doesn't turn out to be graphene 2.0, a material that can revolutionize everything but can't be produced consistently and in usable quantities by any means at all.

Yeah, this feels like the really early results of a material that they eventually refine into a process, hence their patents. There are reports they were worried about being beaten to the punch, im curious if that’s true and if so, who the word on the street said was close.
