The name makes me think it is a molten salt reactor, but it uses liquid sodium. Still aptly named.

I was hoping the Thorium molten salt ones with atmospheric pressure vessels would pick up pace thanks to this boom in power demand or Helion would arrive on the scene right on time for this.

It is a molten salt reactor, just not a molten salt thorium reactor.
