The Wolf Of All Streets

Grant Cardone says he may have found a way to disrupt the $4 trillion real estate industry by combining income-producing real estate with Bitcoin. In this interview recorded live at Consensus 2026, Grant breaks down why the 1965 REIT model is fundamentally broken — companies forced to distribute 90% of their cash with nothing left for capital expenditures — and how his Bitcoin real estate hybrid solves the liquidity problem that's crushing major institutions like Starwood right now. He explains why 80% of his investors have never owned Bitcoin before, how showing them the hybrid model turned them into Bitcoin buyers on their own, and why he believes every major institution will eventually adopt this model. Grant also reveals how he almost lost $12 million in Bitcoin on a plane he sold to Tim Draper, why he thinks Bitcoin should be $150,000 today, and what Michael Saylor said when he saw Grant's first hybrid deal.

Bitcoin just flashed one of its most reliable historical buy signals — dipping below its 200-week moving average twice in two weeks, a setup Kraken's Chief Economist Thomas Perfumo says has delivered 113% MEDIAN returns over the following year (and 313% over two years), with median time to break even of just TWO DAYS. The signal has only triggered on roughly 10% of all trading days since 2017. But the bull case lands into a brutal backdrop: Add Franklin Templeton filing BTC-reinvesting dividend ETFs, BlackRock's BITA pitched as "too big to ignore" for income investors, and Illinois passing the most punitive crypto tax in the country — and today's setup is the wildest bull/bear divergence we've seen all cycle. We break down whether Kraken's 113% historical signal will hold against Saylor's structural crisis, what miners going below cost actually means, and whether BTC's two-day median break-even is the bull case nobody's talking about.

In this episode, the panel dissects Illinois’ sweeping new tax on digital assets—crypto, stablecoins, prediction markets, and tokenized stocks—that could gut CME Bitcoin futures liquidity, hammer market makers, and spark dormant-commerce-clause lawsuits. They analyze Hyperliquid’s surge, the Spacex perp’s unlock volatility, and how perps trading 3-10x spot volume amplify moves; the Spacex IPO’s capital drain (only 4% float, massive August–December unlocks); altcoin pops like Uniswap and Zcash amid rock-bottom Bitcoin volatility and AI-coin bids; privacy coins versus rising wealth taxes; Fed rate-path risks; tokenized-asset disconnects; SBF’s “VC lottery” luck; casino lobbying against sports prediction markets; and why a quiet, hated-rally summer market may reward smart positioning.

Bitcoin just SMASHED past $66,000 — its highest level in over a week — as the Iran peace deal momentum continues and the market braces for Warsh's first FOMC meeting tomorrow. The setup is brutal: May CPI ripped to 4.2% (driven by the Iran/Hormuz energy spike), prediction markets now price 50-65% odds of at least one 2026 rate HIKE, and Warsh is expected to scrap Powell's forward guidance entirely — meaning Wednesday's dot plot could swing risk assets either direction. Add Saylor's most ambitious forecast yet (Bitcoin to $7 MILLION — "It's inevitable"), Chamath calling $1.14M per coin based on halving math, Kraken launching CFTC-regulated Bitcoin perps for US customers, Elon Musk's net worth crossing $1.3 TRILLION (bigger than all but 12 public companies), and Robinhood cutting 10% of its workforce — and today's setup is the cleanest pre-FOMC inflection we've seen all cycle. We break down whether the Iran rally has legs, what Warsh's first dot plot means for Bitcoin, and whether $7 million is actually possible or pure hopium. Learn more about your ad choices.

Bitcoin just RIPPED to $66k as Trump confirmed the U.S.-Iran peace deal will be signed Friday in Switzerland — ending the 15-week war that's been crushing risk assets all month. WTI oil collapsed 5%, the Strait of Hormuz reopens within 30 days, Nasdaq futures ripped +1.5%, and Glassnode flagged $68K-$80K as the next bullish marker. Add SpaceX's record-breaking IPO closing +19% at a $1.77 trillion valuation, Tether briefly flipping Ethereum for the first time in 8 years, and Mike McGlone forecasting USDT could eventually top Bitcoin — and today's setup is the cleanest bullish inflection we've seen since October. We break down whether the Iran peace deal marks the cycle bottom and which catalysts could keep this rally running through the G7 summit. Learn more about your ad choices.

Bitcoin just crashed below $62,000 as crypto markets have officially erased over $2 trillion from their October 2025 peak — a 48% drawdown — while $1.5 billion in leveraged longs got wiped out and Bitcoin ETFs extended their outflow streak to 12 consecutive days, totaling $4 billion in the longest stretch of withdrawals in ETF history. Add Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent confirming the U.S. will NOT buy Bitcoin on the open market (the Strategic Reserve grows only at "deliberate speed" through confiscations), Sanders, Warren, and Bobby Scott moving to block Trump's plan to add crypto to 401(k) retirement accounts, Bitwise estimating Bitcoin's "fair value" at $224,000, Visa and Mastercard reportedly joining forces with Coinbase and Stripe on a new stablecoin platform, and BitMine filing a $300M preferred stock raise to stack ETH (copying Saylor's STRC playbook) — and today's setup is the most fragile crypto has looked all cycle. We break down what's driving the historic ETF bleed, whether the sovereign-bid bull case is officially dead, and what catalysts could stop Bitcoin from cracking $60K before the weekend.

Bitcoin just decoupled from the Nasdaq — crashing to $65,385 (lowest level since February) while the Nasdaq 100 prints a fresh all-time high — and the Fear & Greed Index has cratered to 11, the deepest reading of the entire cycle. The thesis: capital is rotating aggressively out of crypto and into the $350 billion equity raise pipeline (SpaceX's roadshow opens tomorrow, Anthropic just confidentially filed at a stunning $965B valuation, OpenAI is next). Add Peter Schiff warning Strategy's STRC could enter a "death spiral," Saylor quietly stacking $29M in cash alongside his first BTC sale since FTX, Tom Lee's Bitmine down $8.9B, and the CLARITY Act facing a brutal 4-week window before Senate recess — and today's setup is the cleanest macro inflection we've seen this cycle. We break down whether the Nasdaq decoupling is structural or temporary, what the IPO drain means for crypto liquidity through summer, and what catalysts could pull Bitcoin out of tech's shadow before $60K comes into play.
