This replication by Huazhong University includes PPMS data, showing a strong signal of a diamagnetism transition at around 320K. It does not include a resistance measurement, however.

I wonder how many labs need to replicate the result before it is accepted as factual? This will be an interesting one to watch.

The video they included is weird. It looks like less than a milligram of material. And they didn't show... the conductivity...

I'm waiting until the Argonne national lab's results, as they've got the original sample from the Korean scientists. I expect that will be the decider for many people on whether this is something that's worth their attention

Edit: nvm I was wrong, they don't have the original sample
