This is an unpleasant joke:

Ellen DeGeneres explains bitcoin: 'You’ll either be a millionaire or you’ll be totally broke'

People do not have to buy bitcoin with the intensity of being millionaires, rich or because they want 2x, 4x, or 8x profits ... people can buy bitcoin if they want to make purchases with more privacy and if they look for something decentralized, they do not have to be investors, when someone says words like these: You’ll either be a millionaire or you’ll be totally broke, this scares people and many people may think that bitcoin is some ponzi scheme or gambling... I like her program, but she should call technical experts to explain the technical aspects (she could have called someone from Bitcoin Core to this function ) and she should have also called some analyst who could be someone from the bitcoin foundation

Looks to me more like a social talk than anything real or serious about bitcoin.

and she is inducing people to think badly about bitcoin


Ellen is considered to be someone who is very influential and for her to leave remarks as such just gives a certain aspect of the whole picture. She failed to genuinely conceptualize what Bitcoin is and people like her who is very popular can instanly give a wrong notion about this platform making other people have the same perspective. This is why I believe and agree with Strong death with regards to his feels about Ellen's statement. This is why education is important. Bitcoin is not just an investment, it is capable of being flexible to provide other services. Wishing that more people would know the true concept of Bitcoin and would justify its structure rightfully.
