I think a much bigger help would be if the X-Prize people follow through and offer a $100 million prize for an easily replicable cold fusion experiment. That's what the X-Prize honcho talked about at ICCF24. I have no idea whether that will happen, or whether it is hot air, but I think he said they will decide this year. That would get people's attention! Money talks. If large sums become available, you can bet that every anti-cold fusion physicist will suddenly believe in cold fusion, and they will be lined up for grants. As Stan Szpak said, scientists believe whatever you pay them to believe.

Since she is respected astrophysicist with nearly 600 000 subscribers and probably many more followers this video could potentially make cold fusion research part of mainstream science.

Re: [Vo]:Cold Fusion is Back (there's just one problem)
This video is not bad. But I posted one one complaint in the comment section: "Hossenfelder says that no one was able to replicate several experiments. Some of those were replicated. No one has tried to replicate the others." My point is that if several people try to replicate an experiment but they fail, that may indicate a problem in the experiment. But when no one tries, that tells you nothing about the experiment. It tells you that cold fusion is underfunded.
Re: [Vo]:Cold Fusion is Back (there's just one problem)
Today the real reputation risk is to teach/promote Standard model nonsense. I made a summary of all crappy ideas these folks invented over the past 100 years:: https://vixra.org/abs/2209.0037 The central error has been made by Dirac that did claim a particle can act wave like and couples the same as an EM field (Poincaré). This halve way works for an electron but never for a proton. So all CERN did (invent particles) just is unfounded crap. The mathematical proves are quite simple, that show the errors made by Einstein/Dirac and others. J.W.

Sabine Hossenfelder is an astrophysicist who runs a "no nonsense" science channel. As she acknowledges in the video she is taking a risk talking about cold fusion because it is considered a reputation trap among physicists.
