It appears the new trend toward a more-secure chip/pin card is being met with some concerns.  Personally, I believe we will see a roll-out of biometric/chip cards followed close behind by commerce-without-card-present / ibeacon / nfc / smartphone transactions becoming the standard.

In any way this is viewed, it does mean a move toward a cashless, global commerce.  This, along with a push by the East for a new global reserve currency means the financial future is certainly in flux.

Should we ever move from a debt-based-controlled commerce, as is the case with the Federal Reserve, it will be a move toward gold-backed currencies leaving a huge question as to the viability of the US Dollar.

There's never been a better time to invest in gold.  If interested in doing so, purchasing by the gram and earning income from others whom you help do the same, message me at revfts@usa.net.

MasterCard, Zwipe Team To Roll Out First-Ever Biometric Contactless Payment Card | Mobile Payments Today

The purpose of this blog, in part, is to follow trends in the news that indicate steps being taken to move all commerce to a cashless, chipped system that is the precursor to the Mark of the Beast.  Articles such as this one in 'Mobile Payments Today' lend credence to that thought.  Remember, there is NO down-side to believing in Christ's imminent Return.  I could be wrong:  but, then again, I might be right.  Think about it . . .

Move over iBeacon, Philips GPS-like lights pinpoint you indoors to within a 1m

Apple's iBeacon technology for cashless, smartphone commerce has been said to have indoor capabilities that could, in theory, lead you to specific products in a store and permit checkout from anywhere within the store. NFC Technology means a customer must be within inches of the checkout.  Interesting article.

Obama to announce micro-chip benefit cards Friday - Washington Times

I see us moving toward a cashless monetary system utilizing micro-chip cards, to begin with. It could lead to micro-chip implanting that would solve travel issues, health care tracking, even border security.  This move by the government is the next stage and step in the healthcare plan that will also facility 'marking' every citizen causing men to become more comfortable with accepting what will be the Mark of the Beast.

For the Christian who is living for Christ's imminent return, we will never witness the complete deployment of this last steps.  -  FS

Another piece of the move to cashless commerce puzzle.  This new technology could replace cash and bring many cash/money crimes to an end.
