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 @[email protected], 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.
Wow, you’re right. I’ve looked closer at the patent, and wow, what a bunch of BS. They take some guy’s theoretical research, and use it as a previous art basis to file for an application, just in case the theory turns out to be right.
I didn’t know one could speculatively file patents like that now, didn’t there use to be a part about “showing a working sample” before getting a patent?
