Nothing good comes after the fourth glass of Old Fashioned cocktail while lockdown and you're tweeting. One example of how drunken tweets may make you viral the next day, is the famous Harry Potter author, J.K. Rowling. On her official twitter account, Rowling had a lot of time discussing one of the most unpredictable cryptocurrencies out there today, Bitcoin. Unfortunately, since she was admittedly drunk, that doesn't end well as she called the online currency as 'blah, blah, blah.'
Here's what J. K. Rowling thinks about Bitcoin-- It's 'Blah, Blah, Blah'
![[VIRAL] Harry Potter's J. K. Rowling Calls Bitcoin as 'Blah' on Twitter While Drunk](https://d.techtimes.com/en/full/365882/viral-harry-potters-j-k-rowling-calls-bitcoin-blah-twitter-while-drunk.png?w=731&f=35775a2f04aebae0eb33d8d3f67ee45c)
In a world where certain people get interested in how Bitcoin works, there was a drunk caller on the line. In this case, Rowling seemed to be that person.
On Friday, May 15, Harry Potter author answered a tweet saying, "I don't understand bitcoin. Please explain it to me."
I don’t understand bitcoin. Please explain it to me. — J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) May 15, 2020
Of course, after tweeting this humble inquiry on social media, lots of people answered back to her tweet, trying to explain how the Bitcoin works. Some even suggested to DM her to explain it furthermore.
Hi! My DMs are open if you want to chat w/out onlookers. The very short version is: Bitcoin is money fueled by a community of contributors. There's no king or central bank in charge. There are countless stories we can use to explore the ethics of a world w/global currency — Leigh Cuen (@La__Cuen) May 15, 2020
What the people don't know about the famous author was that these conversations were made with the help of Twitter and a fourth glass of very strong Old Fashioned cocktail. Resulting in a hilarious debate between Rowling and crypto users. Worse, she even called the currency "blah,blah,blah."
People are now explaining Bitcoin to me, and honestly, it’s blah blah blah collectibles (My Little Pony?) blah blah blah computers (got one of those) blah blah blah crypto (sounds creepy) blah blah blah understand the risk (I don’t, though.) — J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) May 15, 2020
In her follow-up tweet, she admits that she'd been drinking amid stay-at-home orders while answering back to the tweets.
"I know you mean to help, but full disclosure: I'm only allowing myself alcohol at weekends during this lockdown, and I'm on my fourth very strong Old Fashioned, and honestly, you might as well send me a scroll written in Sanskrit," said on her tweets.
Rowling says she can understand it more while drunk
When someone recognized that she might be drinking while tweeting, Rowling said that there are even far more chances that she'll understand Bitcoin far off when drunk.
Finally, after a couple of tweets from random people, Rowling accepted a Bitcoin explanation that-- for her-- 'makes sense.'
Finally, an explanation that makes sense. https://t.co/Ne6L8TOM7p — J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) May 15, 2020
