Schwab Opens Crypto Trading in SOL, AVAX and LINK

Charles Schwab made Solana, Avalanche and Chainlink available to trade on Schwab Crypto on Nov. 9, expanding the account’s direct trading options beyond bitcoin and ether. The company said in its announcement that clients can now buy and sell SOL/USD, AVAX/USD and LINK/USD.

Which assets can Schwab Crypto clients trade?

The additions bring the platform’s available assets to five: bitcoin, ethereum, solana, avalanche and chainlink, according to Schwab. The company had announced plans to add the three tokens in August, saying then that they would become available “in the coming months.”

Schwab began rolling out Schwab Crypto in May 2026 and opened it to all eligible retail clients in October, the company said. The crypto account is offered by Charles Schwab Premier Bank, SSB; the bank and Charles Schwab & Co. are separate, affiliated subsidiaries of The Charles Schwab Corporation.

What does trading through Schwab cost?

Schwab says each trade is priced at 75 basis points of its dollar value. Clients can view and trade crypto alongside traditional investments on Schwab.com, Schwab Mobile and thinkorswim, according to the announcement.

The account is available in U.S. states except New York and Louisiana, and is not offered in U.S. territories or internationally. Schwab says not all clients will qualify.

Will Schwab add more tokens?

Schwab said it plans to add more cryptocurrencies and other digital assets over time, but did not name further assets or give a timetable. The company also said it may delay, change or withdraw support for any announced asset because of market, regulatory, operational or risk-related developments.
