Grant Cardone adds $100M in bitcoin to boost real estate investment returns up to 32%.

Investor Grant Cardone revealed at Consensus Miami 2026 that he added $100 million in bitcoin to his real estate portfolio, combining BTC with income-generating properties. This hybrid strategy aims to outperform traditional REITs, projecting annual returns of 22% to 32%. Cardone criticizes REITs for not holding bitcoin and sees an opportunity in merging digital assets with real estate. His firm now holds about $200 million in bitcoin, introducing many traditional investors to crypto exposure while maintaining real estate as the foundation of the strategy.
