The post Fact Check: Are Netflix and MetaMask Teaming Up for ETH Subscriptions? appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News

Netflix is one of the world’s largest streaming platforms and is often at the center of tech-related rumors. Now, a new claim is spreading across X and Web3 communities that Netflix is in talks with MetaMask to allow Ethereum-based subscription payments.

The rumor gained huge attention, so Coinpedia stepped in to fact-check whether the claim is real or just another false alarm.

Who Made This Claim?

The claim appears to have originated from social media posts on X  from crypto-focused accounts like Coinvo, CryptoNews_eth, and PandaAsiaStreet, all citing vague “reports” that Netflix is exploring Ethereum payments through MetaMask wallets.

But is this claim true? Let’s break it down.

Coinpedia’s Key Findings: What’s Actually True?

No Official Confirmation From Netflix or MetaMask

Coinpedia’s review of Netflix’s press pages, and there hasn’t been any public statement or announcement confirming talks or partnerships related to Ethereum subscriptions.

However, such genuine partnerships involving major brands are always disclosed by both parties.

No Evidence in Netflix’s Payment Roadmap

Netflix currently supports traditional payment methods, including credit cards, debit cards, and region-specific options.

There is no mention of crypto payments, Ethereum, or MetaMask in Netflix’s official payment documentation or investor communications.

MetaMask Has Not Announced Any Netflix Collaboration

MetaMask usually announces big partnerships publicly, but there is no mention of Netflix anywhere, not on its website, blog, or official X account. 

While MetaMask has recently partnered with firms like Meld for fiat on-ramps and Bridge for stablecoins, none of these relate to Netflix or any streaming service. The project’s focus remains on wallet features, staking, and rewards programs, not entertainment partnerships.

Industry Experts Urge Caution

Crypto analysts warn that viral claims about big-brand crypto integrations often lack verification. Without confirmation from primary sources, such rumors should be treated as speculation.

Similar claims involving Amazon, Apple, and other tech giants in the past were later proven false.

The U.S. OCC has warned Wall Street about the "de-banking" of industries such as digital assets, calling such practices "illegal."

PANews reported on December 11th, citing CoinDesk, that President Trump's actions against the "debanking" of controversial industries such as digital assets have prompted the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) to release a new report. The report further confirms past practices and warns that banks suspected of involvement could face penalties. This brief OCC report reviewed nine of the largest national banks in the United States, concluding that "between 2020 and 2023, these banks developed public and private policies that restricted certain industries from accessing banking services, including requiring escalating reviews and approvals before providing financial services." The report states that some large banks set higher barriers to entry for controversial or environmentally sensitive businesses, or activities that contradict the banks' own values. Financial giants such as JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, and Citigroup are highlighted, with links to their past public policies, particularly those concerning environmental issues. The report states, "The OCC intends to pursue accountability for any illegal 'debanking' activities by these banks, including referring related cases to the Attorney General." However, it remains unclear which specific laws these activities may have violated.
