Following a recent run of gains, bitcoin (BTC) fell lower in today’s session, after it was revealed that Tesla had sold 75% of its holdings in the token.


Tesla stated that, “As of the end of Q2, we have converted approximately 75% of our Bitcoin purchases into fiat currency”.


As a result of this, BTC/USD fell to an intraday low of $22,707.51 in today’s session, which comes less than 24-hours after sitting at a peak of $24,196.82. BTC/USD – Daily Chart


Ultimately, the shift in momentum comes as price strength was already nearly overbought, with the 14-day RSI tracking near a ceiling of 62 on Wednesday.


This resistance has now firmly been held, with the index now at a reading of 57, and a floor of 51 its next possible target.


Should this bearish sentiment intensify, then bitcoin could potentially begin to head lower, moving towards $20,000. Ethereum


Ethereum (ETH) also saw its recent winning streak snapped, as the token fell back into the red during Thursday’s session.


Following a high of 1,612.65 on Wednesday, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency slipped to a low of $1,472.19 today.


The drop comes as sentiment around crypto turned bearish earlier in the session, with the global market cap trading 3.2% lower as of writing. ETH/USD – Daily Chart


Looking at the chart, ethereum’s Relative Strength Index was tracking above 70 during yesterday’s session, which was a three month high.


As of writing, the index now sits at 62, as bears have re-entered the marketplace, with some anticipating further declines this week.


If prices are to move lower, the $1,300 support point will likely be a point of interest for bears in the market.
