Anthony Pompliano, the founder and CEO of Pomp Investments, recently spoke on Fox Business about Bitcoin’s strategic importance to the United States. Emphasizing Bitcoin as “digital real estate,” he urged for its inclusion in national reserves and underlined its capacity to confirm American leadership in the world economy.
Under a Trump presidency, his main ideas and forecasts for Bitcoin and the larger crypto market are broken out below.
Bitcoin as Digital Real Estate: A Strategic Necessity
Pointing out its scarcity—only 21 million coins will ever exist—Pompliano likened Bitcoin to digital real estate. He made comparisons between the need of holding strategic digital assets and the deliberate physical property acquisitions like Greenland or the Panama Canal. Pompliano underlined:
“If other countries are buying and holding Bitcoin, the U.S. must act forcefully to maintain its leadership.”
The talk also covered the difficulties that investors encounter while joining the Bitcoin market because of its prior volatility. Pompliano, however, urged Americans to see long terms.
Referring to past events such as the S&P 500, he pointed out that what seems dangerous now might seem visionary in retrospect. “The second-best time to buy Bitcoin is today; yesterday was the best time,” he said.
Pro-Business Policies Driving Crypto Adoption
Pompliano pointed out as a major tailwind for Bitcoin acceptance the Trump government’s pro-business stance. Reflecting crypto’s inclusion into mainstream finance, companies including Coinbase, Kraken, Ripple, and MoonPay helped to fund Trump’s inauguration.
Pompliano claims that the practices of the government encouraged the belief among people that capitalism, technology, and free markets are absolutely essential for the future of America.
Pompliano said, highlighting its fit with American values, “Crypto represents the most free-market asset available.” Furthermore, noting that several government leaders possess Bitcoin, he indicated a national context that would be beneficial for the acceptance of cryptocurrency.
Bitcoin Integration into Traditional Finance and Global Strategies
Looking ahead, Pompliano said Bitcoin will move from a specialized asset to a fundamental component of the traditional financial system.
“The great story of 2025 will be that crypto has grown up and secured its place at the table,” he said. He added that the growing political and financial impact of cryptocurrency already shows this transition.
Pompliano also covered global events, including Bitcoin policies of Russia and El Salvador. Although detractors would discount these countries’ initiatives, he contended that their activities underline the rising worth of Bitcoin as a store of value and a means of sanctions offset. “If your enemies are using Bitcoin, shouldn’t you?” he asked rhetorically.
Strategic Digital Assets and the Need for U.S. Action
Pompliano strengthened Bitcoin’s supremacy even if other digital assets are becoming more popular. Bitcoin, he said, is “digital gold,” and its main attraction is in safeguarding purchasing power.
Although assets like Ethereum draw interest for their technological capacity, Pompliano said the government should give Bitcoin top priority for strategic relevance instead of trying to choose one tech development winner.
Pompliano ended by underlining the need for American action. If America does not follow suit, America runs behind nations like Russia currently mining and stockpiling Bitcoin. The use of Bitcoin as a reserve asset could change economic power dynamics as it develops and gets included into world financial institutions.
Meanwhile, as of writing, BTC is swapped hands at about $94,998.39, slightly up 0.53% over the last 24 hours, driving its market cap above the $1.80 billion mark.
