America’s top brokerage firm, Charles Schwab, has officially rolled out trading for Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) on the Schwab Crypto platform through the Charles Schwab Premier Bank. The phased launch will begin with an internal employee pilot, followed by a client waitlist pilot, followed by deeper expansion throughout Q2, 2026, and beyond.
