Real estate investor Grant Cardone, while evaluating the cryptocurrency market as a space where funds with strong short-term speculative tendencies gather, presented a specific forecast for Bitcoin (BTC), stating that it could reach $189,425 by the end of 2026. He argued that an investment structure combining real estate cash flow with Bitcoin's upside potential is more stable than holding Bitcoin alone.

Benzinga reported on May 14 (local time) that Cardone explained a strategy at the Consensus event to purchase discounted real estate during the current commercial real estate downturn and combine it with Bitcoin accumulation. Cardone introduced this approach as a 'real estate-Bitcoin hybrid' model, aiming for results that are difficult to achieve with traditional real estate investments alone.

Cardone also mentioned a difference in opinion with Michael Saylor, Chairman of Strategy. He stated that Saylor said something to the effect of “Just buy Bitcoin. You won't even want real estate.” However, Cardone countered that Bitcoin alone makes it difficult to generate the monthly cash flow many investors need.

He believes that Bitcoin cannot currently replace the rental income and tax advantages of real estate as is. Cardone pointed out that leveraging margins is necessary to generate cash flow from Bitcoin, emphasizing the role of real estate in providing stable cash flow without leverage.

Cardone set a target price for Bitcoin at $189,425 by the end of 2026. He described the cryptocurrency market and altcoins as magnets attracting “decadent investments,” distinguishing between short-term speculative crypto traders and long-term real estate investors.

He explained that combining Bitcoin and real estate can reduce investors' emotional volatility. Cardone stated that his investor base remained calm even when Bitcoin plummeted from approximately $126,000 to $74,000. He attributed this to the underlying real estate holdings providing portfolio stability.

Cardone assessed the current real estate market as one of the largest correction cycles in years. He believes that price-pressured real estate creates opportunities for investors with capital. Cardone's argument can be summarized as an investment logic that, while acknowledging the high upside potential of cryptocurrencies, emphasizes the need to combine them with real assets that provide long-term cash flow to withstand volatility.
