Charles Schwab announced on November 9, 2026, that Schwab Crypto had added trading in Solana (SOL/USD), Avalanche (AVAX/USD) and Chainlink (LINK/USD), according to TechFlow. Alongside Bitcoin and Ethereum, the additions brought the platform’s lineup to five digital assets.
Access and trading costs
Schwab Crypto began rolling out to customers in May 2026 and reached all eligible retail customers in October. Provided by Charles Schwab Premier Bank, the service offers accounts 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 alongside traditional investments through Schwab.com, Schwab Mobile and thinkorswim.
More choice, with explicit risk warnings
Joe Vietri, Schwab’s head of digital assets, said the expansion was intended to give customers more choice and flexibility within their overall portfolios. He said the company planned to add more cryptocurrencies and other digital assets, though the supplied report gave no timetable or further asset names.
The announcement also warned that crypto assets are not deposits, have no FDIC insurance or SIPC protection, and are highly volatile. The expanded trading menu establishes broader availability on Schwab’s platform; the report provides no customer adoption or trading-volume figures.
