Charles Schwab Is Bringing Bitcoin Trading to Financial Advisors by 2027 — Here's What That Means for Mainstream Adoption

71d ago · 1 source

Charles Schwab, one of the largest brokerage firms in the United States, has announced a mid-2027 target to offer spot Bitcoin and crypto trading through its advisor platform. This move would give thousands of financial advisors the ability to directly buy and sell crypto on behalf of their clients. It represents a major step in bridging traditional finance and the crypto world.

WHY IT MATTERS

Think of Charles Schwab as one of the biggest "money managers" in the country — they oversee investments for millions of people, often through financial advisors who help clients decide where to put their savings. Right now, most of those advisors can't easily buy Bitcoin or crypto directly for their clients. Schwab announcing plans to change that is like a massive department store deciding to add an entirely new section — suddenly, millions of shoppers (investors) who already trust that store will have easy access to crypto. For Bitcoin and the broader crypto market, this kind of institutional access is a big deal because it brings in money from everyday investors who might never have opened a crypto exchange account on their own.
