Tap and go credit cards

I did not even know that my card had a tap and go option until last month. The grocery store I go to just discovered this option.

Revelation 13:17 - and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name

This is interesting because you can not control personal spending while physical money is still a viable currency. But you can control personal spending if the only viable currency is electronic. Popular financial services (e.g. Paypal, GoFundMe, Patreon etc.) already have a reputation for restricting access to those who are not of the 'accepted' ideology or belief. It is therefore interesting to speculate that this is all (including the 'pandemic') part of the process of conditioning us to live without physical money.

NOTE: To me this is only a curiosity – and not a cause for fear. If anything, this is confirmation that our God has always known the score.

THE LESSON: If ever there is a financial payment system that requires some kind of “mark” be placed on the hand or forehead (Revelation 13:16), then don't do it. Those who wear “the mark” develop the side-effect of a “a foul and loathsome sore” (Revelation 16:2).

I suspect there will still be black markets even if we go totally cashless. I could be wrong.

One of my co workers just made 2K on a cryptocurrency trade. I think it was Litecoin. He bought low and sold high. 

Bitcoin is known as one way some people buy and sell drugs and guns illegally. I didn't believe it, went to a few bitcoin sites and sure enough you can buy anything illegal or not and even have it shipped to your door. Not that I have any intention to ever do so.

Medical marijuana, bong shops and the like are cropping up all over here. It's crazy that something once illegal is now in a store front at a local mall.

Times they are a changin'.
