Proton‐conducting materials play an important role as electrolytes in proton‐exchange membrane fuel cells. In their Concept article on page 6259 ff., M. C. Das and co‐workers describe metal–organic frameworks and other crystalline solid‐based proton‐conducting platforms that exhibit “ultrahigh superprotonic” conductivities (>10 −2 S cm −1 ). They interpret the structural–functional correlation and address challenges and promising directions for future research.
