According to Grant Cardone's latest announcement on X (formerly Twitter), Cardone Capital has significantly expanded its Bitcoin holdings by adding approximately 1,200 BTC to its treasury. This latest purchase brings the company's total Bitcoin holdings to over 4,000 BTC, representing a substantial increase from the 2,800+ BTC reported earlier this month. The company simultaneously added approximately 2,000 apartment units to its multifamily housing portfolio, demonstrating its continued commitment to building a substantial digital asset position while maintaining its core real estate business. Cardone confirmed the acquisition, stating that the firm is "doubling down" on its multifamily and Bitcoin model through these strategic additions.
As reported by crypto.news, Cardone Capital employs a unique strategy where rental income from selected properties funds recurring Bitcoin purchases through a dollar-cost averaging plan. The firm directs part of the rental cash generated by apartment buildings toward Bitcoin purchases, including when cryptocurrency prices decline. Cardone stated, "We work to improve the cash flow of the real estate and buy more bitcoin as it falls." This approach allows the company to accumulate Bitcoin while managing market volatility through strategic timing. The structure differs from public Bitcoin treasury companies that often issue stock or debt to fund purchases, instead using income from apartment buildings and other properties as a recurring source of capital.
According to company statements, Cardone Capital had previously held about 1,000 BTC in January after purchasing another $10 million worth of the asset. The firm had also acquired 282 BTC for approximately $18 million during a June market decline when Bitcoin traded near $63,000. Cardone announced at the Consensus 2026 conference in Miami that the company had added $100 million in Bitcoin as part of a transaction that included about $235 million in real estate assets. The latest expansion adds about 1,200 BTC and around 2,000 multifamily units to the strategy, increasing both sides of the firm's real estate and Bitcoin portfolio. Based on the latest announcement, the company now holds over 4,000 BTC in total.
As reported by crypto.news, Cardone Capital is working toward a target of 10,000 BTC across 10 specialized investment funds. The company's private funds carry Bitcoin volatility, property-market risks, and limits on investor withdrawals. Selected vehicles may allocate between 15% and 50% of their assets to digital currencies, with investors receiving an interest in the private vehicle rather than direct Bitcoin ownership. The company primarily offers its funds to accredited investors, requiring net assets exceeding $1 million or annual income above $200,000. Investors gain Bitcoin exposure through the fund structure without managing wallets or private keys, with third-party institutional custodians handling Bitcoin storage and execution.
According to crypto.news, combining real estate and Bitcoin exposure exposes investors to changes in both markets, with prolonged Bitcoin declines potentially lowering digital-asset values while property vacancies and maintenance costs could reduce cash availability for future Bitcoin purchases. The private-fund structure differs from publicly traded Bitcoin investments, with longer holding periods and institutional custody arrangements. Cardone has projected annual returns of 22% to 32% for the hybrid vehicles, though these are management forecasts rather than established long-term results. The strategy is also aimed mainly at accredited investors, making it less liquid and accessible than public Bitcoin ETFs or listed REITs.
