Bitcoin recovered to around $64,000 after a sharp drop briefly pushed it below its 200-week simple moving average. CoinDesk reported that RSI readings pointed to oversold conditions, suggesting a relief bounce rather than a confirmed trend reversal.
The Relative Strength Index, or RSI, fell below 30 on the daily chart on Tuesday, a level often associated with oversold markets and short-term relief rallies. Intraday RSI readings also showed oversold conditions as bitcoin moved below $62,000 earlier in the session.
Bitcoin staged a rebound to the $64,000 area after an early Asian-session selloff briefly drove the cryptocurrency below its 200-week simple moving average at $61,845, according to CoinDesk. The recovery followed a drop below $62,000 and came as technical indicators began flashing oversold conditions.
The move matters because it offers traders a clearer read on whether the latest decline is stabilizing or only pausing. CoinDesk characterized the bounce as a typical response to oversold conditions, not evidence that bitcoin has fully reversed its near-term weakness.

Still, the broader technical picture remained cautious. CoinDesk noted that widely tracked momentum gauges, including the 50-, 100- and 200-hour moving averages, continued to trend lower, pointing to a bearish near-term bias.
That leaves the market focused on whether the rebound can develop into a sustained recovery or fades into another temporary rally within the downtrend. For now, the bounce has slowed the selloff, but the source material does not support calling it a durable bottom.
