Can someone actually update what’s going on? I read from various sources, some say it’s not real, others say it was successfully replicated, some say yet to be confirmed, some say it has low success rate. Can anyone actually put some order and explain what’s the real status of LK-99?

We are all waiting. Currently a claim has been made and some other claims that it could work both from modeling and replicating the process.

We are waiting for other labs to do proper peer reviews and verify the results. That still won't mean it does what we hope it does just that the results are the same as what was found in the original claim.

So still a long way away from knowing what is actually possible.
