ProCap Financial CEO Anthony Pompliano described Bitcoin as a "shining light" during recent geopolitical conflicts, including the Iran war, in a CNBC interview on April 7, 2026. Despite sell-offs in stocks, bonds, and gold, Bitcoin's price remained stable, challenging expectations that it would follow broader risk asset trends. Pompliano noted that Bitcoin's reduced volatility and neutrality make it an attractive asset for investors amid geopolitical uncertainty, as it is not tied to any single nation.
