In this monologue, the presenter warns that BlackRock – the world’s largest asset manager, which together with Vanguard controls roughly 86% of the S&P 500 – has reportedly invested about $10 billion (≈190,000 BTC) in Bitcoin, likely via a newly approved Bitcoin ETF. He frames the news as a double‑edged sword: on one side it could signal mainstream acceptance and a win for decentralization, financial liberty and personal sovereignty; on the other, it may herald the beginning of institutional domination over the few truly decentralized assets. The speaker repeatedly stresses his opposition to central bank digital currencies, globalization, and any form of financial centralisation, describing them as violations of human rights. He urges viewers to discuss the issue in the comments and to consider whether investing through a BlackRock‑run ETF is preferable to buying Bitcoin directly. Throughout, he promotes his own financial‑education platform, rob.team, offering a low‑cost subscription (≈£0.22 per day) that includes hundreds of hours of courses, masterclasses, and a free 12‑week Money Mastermind University program for early sign‑ups. He references his upcoming book “Money Matrix,” past interviews (e.g., with Andrew Tate), and testimonials from community members, positioning rob.team as a means to achieve financial independence, avoid the traditional school‑taught money system, and protect personal freedom against the growing power of mega‑funds like BlackRock and Vanguard.
Chapters
Warning: banks are buying billions of Bitcoin. In fact, one huge fund that owns 86% of the S&P 500 has just basically bought $10 billion of Bitcoin, and I am very torn about what this means. On the one hand, I think you should be inspired. On the other hand, I think you should be afraid. I think you should be very afraid. So I don't know if you saw the news recently, but, you know, essentially, um, a Bitcoin ETF, um, has been created and allowed. Essentially now, through firms like BlackRock Do you know who BlackRock are? Do you know just how much of the world BlackRock run and control? If you don't, you need to read my book Money Make Tricks when it goes live soon. BlackRock run the world. I asked, um, an ex-banker, um, who controls the world? You know, a lot of people say the central banks, a lot of people say the Rothschilds, or certain governments. And this ex-banker said that Vanguard and BlackRock, the two biggest funds in the world, essentially the two biggest banks, because funds are essentially banks, they control the world. BlackRock and Vanguard control the world. This is what an ex-banker said. On my show Disruptors. And now breaking news is that BlackRock have bought more than $10 billion of Bitcoin. Now let me know what you think about that in the comments. As you know, I like to discuss these points with you. I do do my best to engage, um, I'll get in the comments and discuss this as well as doing it now. But on the one hand, this is a celebration of decentralization. This is great news for people who believe in Bitcoin, people who believe in— decentralization is a vague word, but people who believe in freedom, financial, digital and personal liberty and sovereignty and freedom. In some ways, this is a victory for that. It's basically saying that Bitcoin is becoming more accepted, and Bitcoin is one of the few truly decentralized assets, along with, say, gold, maybe real estate in some Western countries, maybe not. But there aren't many truly decentralized asset classes where the central system can't just ban you, tax you, steal from you, and spend your money. On the other hand, though, is this the start of the control of Bitcoin and other decentralized assets from the biggest bank in the world. And I'm not quite sure what I think about this yet. Now, I stand against central bank digital currencies. I stand against globalization and centralization and social or communist constructs in society. I stand against all these things because These things are thefts of your freedom. They are violations of your human rights. And so I get worried when massive banks— well, BlackRock aren't technically a bank, but they're technically a bank. Um, I get worried when big institutions like this come wading into Bitcoin. Is it just more money that they get to control? This is a potential concern of mine. So I'd like to ask you in the comments, do you think this is a celebration of Bitcoin and decentralization? That essentially one of the biggest banks in the world— not a bank, a bank— BlackRock, a fund, they've just put $10 billion into Bitcoin, and now you can invest through BlackRock into Bitcoin. Why wouldn't you just go straight into Bitcoin? Why do you want to go through BlackRock and in an ETF and into Bitcoin? Just invest in Bitcoin. Are they trying to control your money through Bitcoin? This is my— on the one hand, the devil in my ear is saying this. On the other hand, it's a victory for decentralization, it's a victory for Bitcoin and digital and financial freedom. And I'm not yet sure which one this is, and I would love your thoughts. Now look, I think it's really important that I keep speaking out about these things, even though, you know, I'm launching my book Money Matrix. My publisher declined to publish that because they thought it was too political. I interviewed Andrew Tate. You know, many people have disowned me because they think it's too political. But if we do not stand up and speak out about these things, then you will be next. Your freedom will be next. Your sovereignty will be taken away. Your liberty will be taken away. And so I will keep speaking up about these things, and I'd like to support and thank you, everyone who supported me. I thank you, um, and I will keep fighting for us. But also, you know, I'm not a freedom fighter in the sense I'm a financial freedom fighter. I, I just want you to make more money, start and scale your business, get better financial education and knowledge, learn what they should have taught you in schools about money but don't, learn how the system makes its money so you can beat the system, and you can make your own independent financial wealth.

Also, all the content we can't share because it would get us canceled or deplatformed on the social media channels, we share in Rob.team, including, for example, the full 5-hour episode with Andrew Tate. Which is currently, um, the part one is going wild on the internet. But there's a lot of stuff— well, not a lot, but there's enough stuff we had to take out because we probably would have got canceled. So all the, um, uncut content is in rob.team. There's masterclasses most Sundays, there's, um, courses, resources, live events, an amazing community to help you start and scale a business. Make, manage, and multiply more money, uh, and, and also, um, create independent financial freedom and wealth. Because, um, right now the big banks, BlackRock— who are saying— people say, oh Rob, BlackRock aren't a bank, they're a fund. Well, that's essentially a bank. And I asked an ex-inner-city trader, um, who controls the world, and he said Vanguard and BlackRock because they have the most amount of money. Apparently those big funds have about 86% control of the S&P 500, so they're powerful. And, um, BlackRock have just gone $10 billion into Bitcoin. $10 billion, something like 200,000 Bitcoin nearly. I'm not sure how I feel about that. Is that a victory for decentralization, for freedom, for digital freedom? Is that a victory for Bitcoin, or is that just a way for the big institutions to get in and control one of the few decentralized platforms. Let me know what you think in the comments. Let's discuss this more in rob.team. Um, and look, at school you weren't taught about how money really works. Um, you're just taught to get a job and pay your taxes and get loans to pay loads of interest and then be stuck in the system and have debt until you die, which is what a mortgage means. Um, and then pay 40% of everything that you've got left, which is not much, once you die. That's essentially how the system teaches you about money. Whereas if you join Rob.team, you learn how to build independent financial wealth. You learn how to invest in assets that produce recurring income, create multiple streams of income, get your tax bill down, get your income streams up, get your earning power up, learn how to really make money, learn how the banks make money, and play them at their own game and win the game of money. And all of this is in Rob.team. Um, Pam says say it loud and proud. Okay, it's Rob.team. Rob.team, just type in Rob.team. Um, just open any web page, do it right now. Oh, by the way, if you go do it now, here's what I'll do as a little special bonus for you. Um, if you go and join Rob.team right now, yes, you can cancel at any time if it's not for you, um, so your risk is only 22p a day. But if you join Rob.team right now, here's what I'll do. I'll give you my 12-module, 12-week Money Mastermind University course completely for free. This is a course I will sell for between £500 and £700. I recorded it live, um, and then all the recordings went into Rob.team. I did Q&A session at the end of each one as well. The only place you can currently get it is in Rob.team, and, um, if you join now, you can get it before you'd have to pay £500 to £700 when it goes out, you know, into the real world, um, for a retail price. For example, um, and you can gain access to it completely for free in rob.team. Um, what the money system doesn't want you to know, what your parents didn't teach you, what the school system covers up, it's all there. And that's my special bonus for you as a thank you for following my work, to join rob.team right now. So let me know what you think in the comments about BlackRock. Now obviously there's, there's ETFs so you can invest through funds into Bitcoin Why would you just not just go straight into Bitcoin? Why would you want to do it through a fund? Simon Clark has just joined Rob.team. Welcome aboard, Simon. Look forward to seeing you all there. And you get closer access to me there as well. We can meet at an event there. I do the special Moneymaker Summit for Rob.team members only. Um, Gary said Rob.team content isn't just static, it grows every day. Um, Graham Barge says I'm tapping out of the UK. I look— I had a conversation yesterday with Lawrence Fox who's over the UK Every day I'm talking to people who are over the UK. This is a worrying time, which is why you need to build independent financial freedom, you know, location financial freedom, so you can earn anywhere, anytime. And, and doing this through the system is impossible, which is what I built Rob.team to help you to do. So thanks for tuning in, really appreciate you. Let me know what you think in the comments, uh, about BlackRock now owning about $10 billion of Bitcoin, something like 191,000 Bitcoin. Um, is this a victory for decentralization, or is this just a way for, you know, the money matrix to gain control, more control? Let me know what you think in the comments. Thanks for tuning in, and remember, if you don't risk anything, you risk everything. Ian Hollingsworth is already in rob.team. I'll see you all there.
