Not sure what Bitcoin is? Neither is Conan O'Brien. So he brought the “chief operating officer” of the online currency to his show Monday to explain.

“Conan, it's quite simple,” the mysterious executive explained. “Bitcoin is a decentralized, digital currency exchanged in the interactive metaverse.” He later clarified: “Bitcoin is an open-sourced, synergistic flow matrix facilitating e-transference of digital assets.”

Conan kept pressing, until the COO finally explained: “Bitcoin is a flat circle and everything we ever do or have ever done we will do again.”

“That's a line from ‘True Detective,'” O'Brien said.
