Cardone Capital Expands Bitcoin Holdings With 282 BTC Purchase

Grant Cardone’s investment firm, Cardone Capital, has expanded its Bitcoin portfolio by acquiring an additional 282 BTC worth approximately $18 million. The announcement was made by Cardone on X, where he stated, “CardoneCapital adding 282 BTC.” The purchase comes as Bitcoin experienced a sharp decline to around $62,000 amid heightened geopolitical tensions linked to the Israel-Lebanon conflict, reflecting the company’s ongoing “buy the dip” strategy.

This latest acquisition follows another recent Bitcoin purchase by Cardone Capital, which added 130 BTC valued at nearly $9.7 million during a previous market pullback. The continued accumulation highlights the firm’s growing confidence in Bitcoin as a long-term investment asset.

Cardone Capital has been aggressively increasing its exposure to cryptocurrency while simultaneously expanding its real estate portfolio. During the Consensus 2026 conference in Miami, Grant Cardone revealed that the company had added another $100 million worth of Bitcoin as part of a larger transaction that also included approximately $235 million in real estate acquisitions.

According to Cardone, the company is developing a unique investment model that combines Bitcoin and income-producing real estate under a single business structure. He explained that the assets have been merged within a limited liability company (LLC), creating a hybrid investment vehicle designed to capitalize on the strengths of both asset classes.

Cardone also noted that traditional real estate investment trusts (REITs) generally cannot hold Bitcoin on their balance sheets, giving his strategy a competitive advantage. He believes this innovative approach can deliver attractive returns, estimating potential gains between 22% and 32%.

The strategy has attracted investors who are largely new to cryptocurrency. Cardone revealed that roughly 80% of participants in the fund had no prior Bitcoin holdings before investing.

The company’s commitment to digital assets is not new. In 2025, Cardone Capital purchased 1,000 BTC worth more than $100 million and has also disclosed plans to tokenize portions of its real estate portfolio. As Bitcoin adoption continues to grow, Cardone Capital remains focused on integrating crypto assets with traditional real estate investments to create new opportunities for investors.
