- Central bank digital currency (CBDC) design: There is talk of a final stage that is small and grain-of-rice sized, with initial access via mobile phones as an intermediate step.
- A grain-of-rice-sized CBDC would function as your entire wallet and digital ID, potentially serving as your wallet, passport, and key.
- Payment infrastructure evolution: Debit and credit cards have moved to RFID chips for contactless use, conditioning people to the idea of waving rather than inserting or typing.
- Future payment modality: The next rationalization is that waving a device will be faster than queuing and entering numbers, but there is concern about losing or having cards stolen, which leads to the idea of a system where you cannot lose it and nobody can steal it.
- Implant concept and human dignity: A microchip implant under the skin is discussed as a means to realize such a system, with the claim that some people may view this as a violation of human dignity.
- Universal basic income (UBI) and timing: The idea of universal basic income has existed for about a century, but billionaire elites and the World Economic Forum have endorsed it more recently. Since 02/2015, there is said to be broad support among major figures, and in 02/2017 Bill Gates stated that UBI is a good idea but too early to introduce it.
- Missing component and COVID-19 impact: It is claimed that the technology for the microchip implant existed earlier, but digital ID had not yet been introduced. The COVID agenda is described as having made the digital ID useful or relevant, enabling the planned sequence.
- Strategy for introduction: Traditionally, central banks would create boom-bust cycles to push new ideas as solutions during crises. In this account, resistance to implants was anticipated to be high, so an alternate approach was pursued.
- Transhumanism and law: There is a view that once electronic implants exist in the body, there is discussion in the World Economic Forum about the legal consequences, including the possibility of people being classified as not human if they have implants.
- Humanoid robots and human rights: The discussion mentions attempts to persuade people by claiming enhancements, and raises the question of whether humanoid robots should have human rights; the World Economic Forum has reportedly conducted surveys asking whether humanoid robots should have human rights, with most people responding that it could apply to you once you accept the microchip implant.
