What do you mean? If it's only a superconductor below 110K, that's not nearly as significant.

Yes, that's what one team now says: that they have observed super conductivity and that this happens at a much lower temperature than the one claimed by the other team. But it is at ambient pressure and more importantly there are already multiple confirmations of the Meissner effect at room temperature. Besides that this experiment shows some really weird stuff happening at higher temperatures that needs to be explained.

So this race is far from run yet.

What confirmations?
Very informal "leaked" confirmations, but that is the current state:
