Real estate mogul Grant Cardone thinks he has an answer to what ails the crypto treasury industry — pair Bitcoin with rental income. Related Reading: US Should Act On Bitcoin, Not Just Praise It, Ex-Advisor To Trump Says His fund buys multifamily housing, collects rent, and channels the proceeds into additional Bitcoin purchases, giving investors exposure to property appreciation alongside the asset’s price swings. It is a model built for a market that no longer rewards passive accumulation. Companies Search For Ways To Put Bitcoin To Work That shift in thinking comes as the broader crypto treasury sector posts its weakest numbers in well over a year. Monthly inflows into digital asset treasury companies have fallen to roughly $555 million, according to data from DefiLlama — the lowest reading since October 2024. DAT inflows in February slowed to $555M, the lowest level since October 2024 pic.twitter.com/tJJqju0kXd — DefiLlama.com (@DefiLlama) March 2, 2026 At that point, just weeks before the US presidential election, inflows had cratered to around $32 million as investors waited out the uncertainty. What followed was a historic surge. After US President Donald Trump’s election victory and a sharp turn toward crypto-friendly regulation, monthly inflows rocketed past $12 billion. The sector looked unstoppable. It wasn’t. Inflows pulled back through most of 2025, stayed well below $10 billion per month, then dropped sharply again heading into 2026. A prolonged bear market has erased much of those post-election gains. Reports indicate crypto prices have retraced to levels last seen before the 2024 election pump, dragging treasury company valuations down with them and drying up fresh capital. The Crypto Warehouse Model Loses Its Appeal Patrick Ngan, chief investment officer at Zeta Network Group, said the old playbook is no longer enough. Companies that simply buy and hold Bitcoin — warehousing the asset with no active strategy — are at risk of being left behind. Those with real operating businesses generating cash flow will have an edge, he said. “Corporate Bitcoin treasuries now need to show they can actually use the asset, not just warehouse it,” Ngan said. The options for doing so are expanding. Treasury companies can stake crypto assets to earn rewards on proof-of-stake networks, run mining operations on proof-of-work chains, or put capital to work through decentralized lending platforms. Each approach turns a static balance sheet into something that generates returns independent of price movement.

Tax advantages tied to real estate ownership sweeten the returns further. Featured image from Pexels, chart from TradingView

Crypto pundit Bird has explained why an XRP price target of $100 is not “insane” when one understands what the XRP Ledger (XRPL) can do. He highlighted how the network could dominate tokenization and on-chain settlement, causing trillions of dollars to flow through the XRPL.  Why An XRP Price Target Of $100 Is Not “Insane” In an X post, Bird indicated that an XRP price rally to $100 could happen due to the XRP Ledger’s capabilities and the network’s potential to dominate several crypto sectors. He noted that the XRPL can tokenize real-world assets, including asset classes worth trillions of dollars. These include treasury bonds, land, gold, silver, and several global currencies. He added that this is just the surface, as other RWAs will also be tokenized on the network.  Related Reading: XRP Price Gears Up For A Major 680% Move Against Bitcoin To Reach $10 Furthermore, Bird also alluded to liquidity pools, locked yield mechanisms, on-chain settlement, and the broader tokenization trend as factors that could spark the XRP price rally to $100. The pundit added that once these other crypto sectors are factored in, market participants can begin to see what is possible in the hundreds of trillions of dollars.  The pundit also noted that when real-world value moves on-chain, then networks that handle liquidity efficiently win, which is where the XRP Ledger comes in. “That’s the bigger picture most people are missing,” he added. It is worth noting that the tokenized value on the network continues to climb.  RWA.xyz data shows that the XRP Ledger currently ranks 6th in terms of tokenized value on the network, which stands at $2 billion. This marks a positive for the XRP price, as the tokenization trend could boost XRP’s utility, thereby increasing demand. Meanwhile, like Bird, crypto pundit Austin also mentioned that a $100 target for XRP is not “crazy.” XRP Is Eyeing A Bullish Reversal In an X post, crypto analyst Egrag Crypto revealed that the XRP price is pushing above the 200 EMA, which could lead to a bullish reversal. The analyst stated that if XRP gets a weekly close above the 200 EMA and $1.55, then the short-term strength increases and momentum shifts. However, if the price remains inside the descending channel, then the broader structure remains corrective.  Related Reading: Why XRP Is Being Hailed As The Top Trade Over Bitcoin And Ethereum For now, the key levels to watch for the XRP price are the $1.55 reclaim, which signals short-term strength, and the $2.20 weekly close, which would signal a bullish expansion. On the other hand, a rejection below $1.55 could lead to a sweep toward $1.26, putting the macro supports at between $0.95 and $0.85 on the cards.  At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading just around $1.41, up over 4% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.
