UK stocks moved modestly higher on Tuesday as Bitcoin extended its rally to a more than three-month high, helping support broader investor appetite for risk despite continued geopolitical tensions surrounding Iran.

The FTSE 100 gained 0.15% as of 03:25 ET (07:25 GMT), while other major European markets also advanced. Germany's DAX rose 0.24% and France's CAC 40 added 0.26%.

Sterling was little changed against the US dollar, trading 0.03% higher at $1.3640.

Bitcoin Climbs Above $80,000

Bitcoin (COIN:BTCUSD) moved above the $80,000 mark, trading around $80,323 after reaching $81,237.94 during Asian trading. That represented its strongest level since mid-May.

The cryptocurrency has gained approximately 28% during August and is on course for its strongest monthly performance since November 2024.

Recent momentum has been supported by a softer US dollar following Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's plans for Treasury bond buybacks, which helped renew buying interest across cryptocurrency markets.

Bitcoin has also risen around 16% since US President Donald Trump called on Congress last week to approve legislation providing greater regulatory clarity for cryptocurrencies.
