It feels like as soon as I’ve written an article about some piece of technology that is eerily reminiscent of the mark of the beast system we see in Revelation 13:16-17, I find something new that overshadows it in no time at all! I’ve done many articles on technologies such as RFID implantable chips, microchips, and hand scanners. I do believe that these things could be used together to create the mark of the beast system that eventually comes about during the tribulation but 2020 has truly seen things that make us rethink what we believe the mark of the beast could ultimately be, or rather what “form” it could take.
I’ve noted in my articles on the Coronavirus pandemic, ID2020, and the push for globalism that many believers and unbelievers alike are taking notice that the Coronavirus is being used as a trojan horse to make way for certain agendas, one of them being the implementation or use of new biometric technologies that may or may not be used in tandem with vaccines and even cryptocurrency.
In these past few weeks and months, we’ve seen articles concerning quantum-dot tattoos that can hold vaccination records and are delivered to the skin via microneedles. As strange as implantable microchips the size of a grain of rice sounds, instead imagine an invisible “patch” of some kind that’s delivered to the skin, biocompatible, and is able to store information that can be scanned.
Could this possibly be used in tandem with digital currencies? I think so. As blown away as some of us may be by this, this is only the tip of the iceberg in terms of how this could be used in society in the coming months or years.
Biocompatible Quantum-Dot Tattoos
From Rice University: Rice bioengineer reveals dissolving microneedles that also embed fluorescent medical info. Keeping track of a child’s shots could be so much easier with technology invented by a new Rice University professor and his colleagues. Kevin McHugh, an assistant professor of bioengineering at Rice since this summer, and a team at his previous institution, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, report in a cover story in Science Translational Medicine on their development of quantum-dot tags that fluoresce with information after they’re injected as part of a vaccination.
The tags are incorporated in only some of the array of sugar-based microneedles on a patch. When the needles dissolve in about two minutes, they deliver the vaccine and leave the pattern of tags just under the skin, where they become something like a bar-code tattoo. Instead of ink, this highly specific medical record consists of copper-based quantum dots embedded in biocompatible, micron-scale capsules. Their near-infrared dye is invisible, but the pattern they set can be read and interpreted by a customized smartphone. Read More
As you read the article we get an interesting bit of information concerning the origin of these quantum-dot tattoos – Bill Gates.
“The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation came to us and said, ‘Hey, we have a real problem — knowing who’s vaccinated,’ said McHugh, who was recruited to join Rice with funding from the Cancer Prevention and Research Institute of Texas. They said, ‘We go on vaccination campaigns where people get into Hummers, drive to a rural village, set up a tent and start immunizing people, but they don’t always know who’s been immunized before and what vaccines are still needed.”
It should come as no surprise to us as that Bill Gates is now propped up as the authority for the fight against the coronavirus pandemic. This alone has led some to believe he’s the antichrist or he’s pushing the mark of the beast – neither of these being true. Although I do believe these new technologies could very well pave the path to the mark of the beast, we must remember that this is ultimately fulfilled during the tribulation.
Cryptocurrency Patent by Microsoft
Now, this one’s really interesting. In March of this year, Microsoft filed a patent for a “cryptocurrency system using body activity data”. It’s a mouth full but essentially what they aim to do with this is to use a device attached to the user to mine cryptocurrency. Although the description doesn’t say exactly how the “device” will sense the user’s activity, I don’t believe it’s a stretch to say it could be “on” the user in some fashion.
At first glance, the publication number is also strange: WO/2020/060606. However, what is important to note about this number is although it resembles the “666” we see in Revelation 13:18, other patents either also have the same “060606” sequence in the publication or application number, none of these having to do with the mark of the beast system we read about in Revelation 13:16-17.
What I’m trying to stress here is that this number shouldn’t be our primary concern. We shouldn’t use the number to say this is the mark of the beast. The mark of the beast that ultimately comes about during the tribulation is what’s associated with “666”. Anything other than that is not the mark of the beast, but we can clearly see recent advances in technology could be laying the groundwork for it.
From Patentscope: Human body activity associated with a task provided to a user may be used in the mining process of a cryptocurrency system. A server may provide a task to a device of a user that is communicatively coupled to the server. A sensor communicatively coupled to or comprised in the device of the user may sense body activity of the user. Body activity data may be generated based on the sensed body activity of the user. The cryptocurrency system communicatively coupled to the device of the user may verify if the body activity data satisfies one or more conditions set by the cryptocurrency system, and award cryptocurrency to the user whose body activity data is verified.
Some exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure may use human body activity associated with a task provided to a user as a solution to“mining” challenges in cryptocurrency systems. For example, a brain wave or body heat emitted from the user when the user performs the task provided by an information or service provider, such as viewing advertisements or using certain internet services, can be used in the mining process.
Instead of massive computation work required by some conventional cryptocurrency systems, data generated based on the body activity of the user can be a proof-of-work, and therefore, a user can solve the computationally difficult problem unconsciously. Accordingly, certain exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure may reduce computational energy for the mining process as well as make the mining process faster. Read More
Nanotechnology, Blockchain, and Immunity Passports
From Ledger Insights: U.S.-based quantum dot producer Quantum Materials Corp (QMC) announced its blockchain-based QDX HealthID for transparency in disease testing and immunization for infectious diseases. The goal is to ensure the authenticity of health data and support individuals to re-join the workforce quickly.
Quantum dots are nanoparticles made up of semiconductor materials that emit different colors when illuminated by light. This color depends on their size and the way they were manufactured. QMC has developed a track and trace solution using quantum dots and blockchain to verify the origin of products and counterfeiting.
The authentication solution is combined with QDX HealthID for monitoring and tracking the outbreaks of diseases, such as the COVID-19. The solution authenticates individuals being tested, the persons administering the test, and the test kits.
With the health data backed by blockchain, governments and health agencies can formulate new plans and safety measures to contain the spread of COVID-19 and other diseases. Additionally, individual users can assess their immunization passport using a mobile application. The app features color-coded indicators — green, yellow, and red. If the app shows the green indicator, the individual has clearance to interact in social and work environments. This indicator can be shared and authenticated by others using a QR code.
“The world must have a system that eliminates the fears and anxiety of not knowing who is able to return to work,” said Les Paull, CEO of QMVT, the unit responsible for sales and marketing of QMC’s innovations. Read More
Prophetic Implications
It’s clear to see that as time goes on technology advances and so does our understanding of what could lay the groundwork for the mark of the beast technology and system. I believe we’re currently at a time where bio-technology and transhumanism are being more and more embraced giving rise to technologies such as these.
The coronavirus adds an interesting twist to it where the attention is focused on the safety and welfare of the public and using these kinds of technologies for our benefit – or so we’re told. As usual, as we see this technology advance we can clearly see the stage being set for the tribulation and that should bring us joy because our redemption draws ever so closely!
