BlockBeats message: On April 6, U.S. brokerage giant Charles Schwab announced that in the first half of 2026, it will roll out spot Bitcoin and Ethereum trading services under its Schwab Premier Bank banking subsidiary, with the product name Schwab Crypto. A company spokesperson confirmed that it is currently moving forward “as planned,” and that customers can already subscribe for early access on the company’s official website.
Charles Schwab manages nearly $12 trillion in client assets. This marks a formal shift from previously offering only indirect products such as crypto ETFs and futures to directly supporting the buying, selling, and holding of BTC and ETH. It is intended to meet clients’ needs to manage digital assets alongside traditional investments such as stocks and bonds under a unified framework. The move signals that major traditional Wall Street institutions are embracing mainstream crypto even further, and is expected to bring a large influx of capital from traditional investors into the crypto market.
