Real estate guru Grant Cardone has framed Bitcoin as a generation-defining innovation.

Cardone in a Sunday X post compared Bitcoin to the printing press, automobiles, telephone and the internet, innovations that shaped generations and moved civilization forward. He said these innovations had taken decades to be widely adopted, adding that he expected the same with Bitcoin.

“Bitcoin is a technological invention to advance money,” he said. “Change takes a moment – time validates great innovations.”

Cardone’s remarks come as 2025 has challenged Bitcoin’s “digital gold” and bull market thesis.

While Bitcoin did surge to a new record price of $126,000 this year, it has since shed most of those gains to most recently trade around $88,000, down 11% in 2025 on the back of tariff panic and jitters around tech stocks.

Cardone turned pro-Bitcoin over the past year, touting the digital asset as a store of value. And he has launched several funds that combine it with real estate, allowing real estate investors to capture its volatility and liquidity.

Cardone said he intends to launch 10 of these funds in total, combining 10,000 BTC with 15,000 apartment units.

Cardone Capital did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Benzinga.

So far, Cardone has launched only three of his planned Bitcoin and real estate funds: the 10X Space Coast Bitcoin Fund, the 10X Miami River Fund, and the 10X Boca Raton Bitcoin Fund.

The 10X Space Coast Bitcoin Fund and the 10X Miami River Fund, launched in December 2024 and May, respectively, have both been oversubscribed. The 10X Space Coast Bitcoin Fund combined 300 apartment units in Melbourne, Florida with $15 million worth of Bitcoin, while the 10X Miami River Fund combined 346 apartments on the Miami River in South Florida with $300 million worth of the asset.

Cardone has continued to accumulate Bitcoin amid its recent price struggles, welcoming the opportunity to pick up the asset for cheap with limited orders.
