Professor Richard Werner, a German monetary economist who teaches in the UK and who has addressed the World Economic Forum in the past, said in an interview posted on YouTube, dated 7 July 2023, that an insider of a central bank mentioned to him that there are plans to introduce a digital currency that involves implanting a microchip into one’s hand (ref. 1). Apparently, this technology has been ready since 2015.
He goes on, to entice people to take the implant, the government might introduce a new social security policy of Universal Basic Income. That means everyone in an economy is to receive a certain income from the government no matter how much they earn per annum.
Now, Professor Werner does not reveal which central bank mentioned these things to him, but my guess is, the US Federal Reserve.
Concerning the World Economic Forum, it should be said that that is a lobbying non-government organisation based in Geneva Switzerland founded by Klaus Schwab, essentially a club of multinational businesses that meets annually at Davos. The World Economic Forum has nothing to do with the United Nations and it does not have any political power anywhere. Thus it cannot compel a central bank to implement a CBDC the way that it thinks it should be implemented. However, whether the World Economic Forum is equivalent to America’s Bohemian Grove is another matter.
Redacted also picked up on the comments of Richard Werner, and they brought up the connection with the Bible’s prophecy of the mark of the beast (ref. 2). However, not being Christians, Redacted is a bit confused as to what the mark of the beast will be.
For those who don’t know, the Bible prophesies that at the time of the False Prophet, who will rise in the nation of Babylon the Great, he the False Prophet will roll out a new currency that will require something such as a microchip to be put into one’s right hand or into one’s forehead, and anyone in that country and economy that refuses to use this currency will not be permitted to buy or sell – neither to pay bills, nor even to buy food.
And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.
Revelation 13:16-18
The False Prophet will do this around the time that he compels people to worship the beast and his image. Those that refuse to worship the beast, the prophecy reads, will be executed, most likely by beheading (ref. Revelation 13:15, 20:4).
And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
Revelation 13:15
Essentially, to worship the beast at the time of the False Prophet is to submit to Islam, and to bow down to the Assyrian, the leader of ISIS, whose name sums in gematria to 666. The False Prophet will argue that Islam is a newer testament that abrogates everything that has come before, both Judaism and Christianity.
So, not worshipping the beast means death by execution, and not taking the mark means death by starvation. But the Bible warns, worshipping the beast or taking the mark means eternal damnation.
And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.
Revelation 14:9-11
To be clear, the mark of the beast will be the currency of one country: the USA, also known as Mystery Babylon. It will be the currency that consumers and producers are to use, as opposed to a mechanism that banks are to use to sync with the central bank.
I should add, there is no such thing as an international currency, and there never will be. It is absurd to think that the likes of Russia and China, and even the European Union for that matter, would ever agree to surrender economic and monetary policy to the USA. Not even the British would give up control of the Pound, after having voted for Brexit, to become independent of the Euro.
Yes, the US dollar is currently the world’s reserve currency, but that is quite different from something such as the sole currency of the entire world.
Having said all that, there is a twist to keep in mind. Because today everyone lives in a global economy, and an online economy, which includes importing and exporting goods and services, for someone who is not physically in America to avoid the mark of the beast, he or she must avoid all things American, including online advertising revenue that comes from America.
Another thing to keep in mind is that before they can introduce a new US dollar, they must completely destroy the existing one. And the way to do that is through hyperinflation. This explains America’s Modern Monetary Theory. MMT was never some kind of gem that economists somehow missed all these years. Instead, MMT was conceived to create a monetary crisis in these last days in order to make a new US digital currency necessary.
