Grant Cardone, CEO of Cardone Capital, has stated his intention to continue purchasing bitcoin using the cash flow generated from his firm's real estate assets. This strategy, which Cardone refers to as a hybrid model, aims to avoid the pressures associated with corporate bitcoin treasury strategies that rely on issuing stock or debt.
Cardone explained that his firm works to improve real estate cash flow and buys more bitcoin as its price falls, a method known as dollar-cost averaging. This approach is designed to smooth out expenditures and remove the need for capital markets influence. As of May, Cardone Capital held approximately $200 million in bitcoin, in addition to managing thousands of residential units and Class A offices.
The firm is pitching projected returns of 22% to 32% for its hybrid model. Cardone highlighted that his company is the largest real estate-bitcoin hybrid globally and operates without institutional investors shaping its strategy, drawing a contrast with companies like MicroStrategy, whose stock has recently traded below the value of its bitcoin holdings.
