Time crystals sound amazingly SF, but no, they don't hold time or allow us to travel through time.
What time crystals do is tick. They're basically incredibly sophisticated clocks...that until now required a specialized lab to keep them at near absolute zero.
But just like we now have room temperature superconductors, we now have room temperature time crystals! These are incredibly accurate clocks and are likely to act as server clocks in quantum computers...plus whatever other uses we may find for them.
Science marches on!
