Too messy, and noisy. Plus it uses gasoline to destroy the earth. I'd use an electric knife............

By implanting 12mm glass computer chips in his flesh Martijn Wismeijer has been able to store Bitcoins inside his body, create a personalised alarm clock and will even be able to install keyless doors in his home. But how painful is the injection?
A Dutch entrepreneur has had two wireless computer chips implanted under the skin in his hands to allow him to store digital currencies like Bitcoin inside his body.
Martijn Wismeijer is the founder of Mr Bitcoin, a company which installs and operates crypto-currency cash machines in and around his native Amsterdam and across Europe.
This month he chose to undergo a painful procedure to embed NFC (near-field communication) chips under his skin. These chips can be read by a range of devices including smartphones like the Samsung Galaxy S5 and Apple iPhone 6, and can be adapted for a range of uses.

Revelation 13 16 It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads, 17 so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name.
18 This calls for wisdom. Let the person who has insight calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man.[e] That number is 666.
He isn’t being forced, so its just the Mark of the Dumbass.
With all due respect to the latest technology, bitcoin, et al, the Mark of the Beast is the Obama Sunrise - ats a fack jack.
I don’t think a chip is mentioned in the Bible.
Somebody has to be first......................
Well, if you embed something under your skin, that’s gonna leave a ‘mark’..................
So all you need to get a large supply of bit coins is a chain saw?
Advertising this is a good way to solicit some unwanted amateur surgery.
He may be the man of lawlessness mentioned in Thessalonians.............
2 Thessalonians 2 New International Version (NIV)
The Man of Lawlessness
2 Concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered to him, we ask you, brothers and sisters, 2 not to become easily unsettled or alarmed by the teaching allegedly from us—whether by a prophecy or by word of mouth or by letter—asserting that the day of the Lord has already come. 3 Don’t let anyone deceive you in any way, for that day will not come until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness[a] is revealed, the man doomed to destruction. 4 He will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God or is worshiped, so that he sets himself up in God’s temple, proclaiming himself to be God.
Probably not. The chip is tiny.
I think the Bible is literally referring to an obvious mark, something that everyone can plainly see.
It probably meant more to readers during the Roman Empire where transactions involved money with the Emperor on it. He was considered a type of god.
Fair Isaac twenty years further on more like.

Tattoos are more popular today that they have ever been....................

Couple this with the Apple Pay and similar tech and voila!..................
OK thanks for the anatomy lesson...

Read the scripture that you provided. He isn’t being forced or even coerced. He’s just doing it for the same reasons that people get a tattoo or piercing: pride.
“He isn’t being forced, so its just the Mark of the Dumbass.”
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
But this is a plausible way for this type of thing to start. Somebody “volunteers” for this, finds out it works for him, a few others try it, and the word starts getting around. Then some anti-Christian nation works toward requiring it, and does it.
At some point, they won’t do this consciously, they will be deluded into doing so.
What will happen as prophesied in the Bible won’t happen all at once. Nobody is going to ring a bell to specifically begin to implement the prophecies. It is stuff like this that will occur, and the world will slouch and stumble gradually and steadily toward this.
I was thinking the exact same thing. Probably not a good idea to announce this eh?
