The American brokerage giant Charles Schwab announced that in the first half of 2026, it will launch spot trading services for Bitcoin and Ethereum through its banking subsidiary, Charles Schwab Premier Bank, with the product named Schwab Crypto. A company spokesperson confirmed that the plan is proceeding as scheduled, and customers can now subscribe for early access on the official website.

Charles Schwab manages nearly $12 trillion in client assets, and this move marks a shift from only offering indirect products like crypto ETFs and futures to officially supporting the direct buying, selling, and holding of BTC and ETH, meeting the demand of clients to manage digital assets alongside traditional investments like stocks and bonds. This signifies that major traditional Wall Street institutions are further embracing mainstream cryptocurrencies, and it is expected to bring a significant influx of traditional investor capital into the crypto market.
