I thought the next-gen thorium reactors were of the liquid fluoride thorium variety. I seem to remember a Wired article from a few years ago describing the estimated costs and physical footprint of this type of reactor being a fraction of current uranium reactor tech.

I'd love to know what the critical pathways for this tech to succeed are.
