Cardone Capital has purchased another 282 Bitcoin worth about $18 million as the cryptocurrency market has retreated toward recent lows amid rising geopolitical tensions.
Summary
- Cardone Capital bought another 282 BTC worth about $18 million as Bitcoin traded near $62,000.
- The firm uses rental income from multifamily properties to fund ongoing Bitcoin purchases.
- Grant Cardone targets 3,000 BTC by 2026 and 10,000 BTC over the longer term.
In a June 19 X post, Grant Cardone announced that his real estate investment firm added 282 BTC to its treasury. Based on current market prices, the purchase is valued at roughly $18 million and comes as Bitcoin (BTC) trades near the $63,000 level following a broader crypto market decline linked to tensions surrounding the Israel-Lebanon conflict.
The latest purchase follows another acquisition made during a recent market downturn, when Cardone Capital bought 130 BTC valued at approximately $9.7 million. The transaction adds to a growing Bitcoin position that Cardone has continued to expand through a strategy tied directly to income-producing real estate assets.
Cardone continues building Bitcoin position through rental income
Earlier this year, Cardone Capital disclosed that it had accumulated about 1,000 BTC after purchasing $10 million worth of Bitcoin in January. According to the company, those purchases are funded through a dollar-cost-averaging strategy that directs rental income from selected multifamily properties into Bitcoin acquisitions.
Among those assets is a 366-unit apartment complex in Boca Raton. Rather than distributing excess cash flow to investors or using it to acquire additional real estate, the firm channels part of that income toward Bitcoin purchases.
According to comments previously made by Cardone, the company intends to hold 3,000 BTC by the end of 2026 and ultimately accumulate 10,000 BTC across multiple investment vehicles.
Speaking at the Consensus 2026 conference in Miami, Cardone revealed that the company had recently increased its Bitcoin allocation by another $100 million. He said the purchase formed part of a broader transaction that also included roughly $235 million worth of real estate acquisitions.
During the event, Cardone described the firm’s structure as a combination of Bitcoin and real estate held within the same limited liability company. He argued that the model differs from traditional real estate investment trusts, which generally do not hold Bitcoin directly on their balance sheets.
Real estate and Bitcoin strategy expands beyond treasury purchases
Cardone has repeatedly linked the company’s Bitcoin strategy to its real estate portfolio. In earlier remarks, he estimated that combining the two asset classes could generate annual returns ranging between 22% and 32%, while noting that many investors in the firm’s products had no previous Bitcoin exposure.
According to Cardone, roughly 80% of investors in one of the firm’s Bitcoin-linked real estate funds did not own Bitcoin before participating.
The company has also introduced investment products built around the same concept. As reported earlier by crypto.news, Cardone Capital launched the 10X Miami River Bitcoin Fund in May 2025, pairing a 346-unit apartment complex on the Miami River with $15 million in Bitcoin. The fund also directs a portion of rental income toward additional Bitcoin purchases.
Cardone’s involvement with blockchain-based assets extends beyond treasury accumulation. In early 2024, he listed his $42 million Golden Beach property on Propy, a blockchain-powered real estate marketplace that supports transactions in both Bitcoin and U.S. dollars through a decentralized title registry and escrow system.
