Bitcoin rose on Tuesday, continuing its recovery from nearly five-month lows as traders bought the world's largest cryptocurrency at lower prices, although sentiment remained fragile in the face of President Donald Trump's trade tariffs.

Other cryptocurrencies also tracked Bitcoin's recovery, although the sector has seen heavy losses in recent weeks as Trump's tariffs impact global risk markets.

Bitcoin rose by 3.6% to $79,673.5 by 09:19 AM Saudi time, surpassing the $80,000 level earlier in the day.
