Charles Schwab announced on November 9, 2026, that Schwab Crypto had added trading for Solana (SOL/USD), Avalanche (AVAX/USD) and Chainlink (LINK/USD), according to TechFlow. The additions brought the platform’s lineup to five digital assets alongside Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Availability and fees
Schwab Crypto began a phased rollout in May 2026 and reached all eligible retail customers in October. The service is provided by Charles Schwab Premier Bank, with accounts available in every U.S. state except New York and Louisiana.
Each trade carries a fee of 75 basis points, or 0.75% of the transaction value. Customers can view and trade crypto assets alongside traditional investments through Schwab.com, Schwab Mobile and thinkorswim.
Expansion plans and risk disclosures
Joe Vietri, Charles Schwab’s head of digital assets, said the expansion was intended to give customers more choice and flexibility within their overall portfolios. The company said it planned to add more cryptocurrencies and other digital assets, but the report provided no timetable or further asset names.
The announcement also warned that crypto assets are not deposits, are not covered by FDIC insurance or SIPC protection, and are highly volatile.
