Tech investor Peter Thiel sold off significant shares of both Nvidia and Tesla during the third quarter of 2025, according to SEC filings. While these moves haven’t directly impacted cryptocurrency markets or DeFi protocols, the market reacted by seeing declines in Nvidia and Tesla stock prices. Thiel, known for his tech investments, didn’t offer any immediate explanations about the sales but has a history of cautioning against rapid technology valuations, particularly AI-driven growth. 537,000 Nvidia shares were unloaded, along with a reduction in his Tesla stake. This move has sparked speculation as to Thiel’s long-term investment strategy. While he is a prominent investor who doesn’t hold executive roles at either company, market watchers are keen on deciphering the rationale behind these divestments.
