If it's been implemented to have bitcoin implant we cannot prevent that to happen, but since bitcoin is not yet adopted and government still not recognizing it as legal currency; that possibility is still a myth for now. Mark of a beast has been prophesized by the religions linked to christianity so that should be respected and those fears are silently deeping knowledge for all who believed, and established faith with it.

Yeah. Implants may not be prevented from becoming a reality soon. Perhaps, it won't be used in conjunction with Bitcoin since it is decentralized and governments would want a currency where they could have control over it.

But one thing for sure is that sooner or later, governments would make use of the blockchain technology for their own needs eventually leading the way towards the design of digital fiat currencies to be used with implants on every citizen. That way, there would be complete control of every transaction made on the country, adding transparency and reducing criminal activity such as money laundering.

Nevertheless, while implants may not be the most viable method for governments to keep track of your financial information, there could exist other ways to do so in a safe and secure form for anyone to use in the future. Just my opinion.

This is so appropriate for a Sci-Fi novel, or better, a version in which they exchange BTC for everything and is the only currency usable worldwide, The practicality? I think a hardware wallet would do exactly the same effect although less sparkling.

This is really dangerous. A bad person could even kill you after he/she saw the bitcoin implant on your body so that he/she can steal your bitcoin.

There are already scientists and enthusiasts using implant technologies to control electronic devices, or even to manage smart homes. So I think it's just a matter of time before something is designed for Bitcoin.

Implants. Hmmm i think you watch a lot of movies and tgat would be? "In Time"?
Scanning their arms to buy coffee for their time.

But this would be great and also scary.
Maybe that is why we are still on the paper money world because of things that might happen if all are just in one chip.
Can be easily robbed with just a scan and other hacking devices that could detect your chip.
This needs a lot of security first before going to the next level.

I am totally against this and any kind of implants, whatever their use is. Hopefully most of the society is also against it. That is way too far, and against human dignity, simply.

For we are against about it and even me I don't wanted that kind of human intervention of technology development nowadays, that's threat to human life as well as radiations will is present of we are implanted with that kind of bitcoin microchip. But to think about we cannot go against it if it will become mandatory for the government to use that for security reasons; mainly taking out everyones privacy at the moment of your life, although it has a sense of security purposes but still freedom will not be like what we have now without any strings attached that you've been controlled not according to your personal will.

That does not sound good in anyway. Having a chip implanted under your skin or on your palm which is available for scanning to readily remove your coins during any purchase? That is a No No. Have you even imagined wrong people having such coin retreiving machines and kidnapping people just to use their machine to scan their palm and get all the coins they have? They can even decide to chop it off if they ain't that nice. Could work though if you will have to type a password first before any debiting occurs but still sounds kinda too risky.

Again with the dark age thinking.
If somebody would be ready to chop you in pieces to get your chip, he is going to chop you in pieces to get your phone now or your credit cards. Or to sell your organs.

Do you think people will suddenly start robbing and killing just because suddenly it might seems as being easier to rob people?
Where are you people getting those ideas?

Was there an increase in killing people for their necklaces when the gold price went up?
Who the hell would risk the chair to steal bitcoin this way? Cause kidnapping carries up to life in prison sentence in some places.

I think that this question should not even be voiced by the father, because any implants It is already too much. I understand and that Bitcoin is looking for more and more sophisticated ways of security, but it's already too much to plan any garbage.

Make a Bet, Make a Bit!

I love the idea, super science fictional and it is also definitely possible, I think in terms of mass adoption something like this wouldn't be implemented until we've also found a way of having our mobile phone within our hands, our ears whatever it might be.

If you gave me the choice, of chip in my hand or pay with my phone. I think I'd still choose phone, for now at least. Besides, someone might try and steal my hand, could get messy.

I remember even ten yours ago or more this was being spoken about in my class st middle school. We discussed an Implant chip to pay for things. Then some crazy christian said it was 666 in the barcode and the mark of the beast so who knows

Maybe someone will havest your body for your chip ? Eek scary.

Stupid ideas, they haven't figured how to use a new address and private key every transactions unless you could have a whole wallet integrated and

implanted on your body, I don't know whether any of you watched "Leftovers in an episode Kevin died here and woke up in afterlife as the president

Of the united states and they wanted to move him to a highly secure bunker and after all the usual verification processes he had to put his penis

On a scanner to make sure it's really him, his bodyguard said if they could fake your retinal scan, voice etc, they could never fake your penis.

Instead of implants why not use smart watches? anyways I don't think Bitcoin would be a great option for our normal and day to day shopping.

That is why I'd never use such a technology.

I don't think that the idea of implanting chips in a body is a good idea. Firstly it is not safe for health, and secondly such actions you can make to manage your strangers. Then you will lose not only bitcoins, but also freedom of action.

I don't know but I thing having Bitcoin wallet implants is uncomfortable. To think that you have some semiconductors underneath your skin, I makes me want to scratch my arm due to being uncomfortable. Some says that it is safe but I think I do not want one. Maybe some wearable tech of some sort will be good. Take a look at the so called "neuro-linker" on the anime Accel World, now that is cool. Cheesy

How would you even feel uncomfortable?
You won't be able to feel it, simply you can because of how our body works.

And I just googled what you recommend.
That is 100000x more dangerous than an implant.
Reading from the wikia..

So you want a device that can communicate with your brain waves but you're afraid of an implant with static data?

Religious and apocalypse waiting nuts will fight your chip because they are simply waiting for something to call the mark of beast, and yours will work for that. It is simply an unnecessary and overkill method to accomplish a quickly unneeded task. To be straight forward,I think there is no need for bitcoin implants.

If it's been implemented to have bitcoin implant we cannot prevent that to happen, but since bitcoin is not yet adopted and government still not recognizing it as legal currency; that possibility is still a myth for now.

This will be possible. It is the sign of end times. That people wont be using money to buy goods and the things they need. If this happens only those who has microchip in their body will be able to buy things in the future. It's not only bitcoin that would be impanted but whole details of that person, the government will be able to track the location and finances of a person. This may sound amazing or cool but it is somehow not good.

It may happen this way, if implants become accepted as a safe and secure way for use in the mainstream world. With them, governments would have complete control over your personal, financial, and medical information anywhere you go. The implant would become a neccessity for anyone who would like to buy, sell, or get access to government's services.

Since everything would be powered by the blockchain, smart contracts, and AI, the system would be secure, immutable, and completely transparent, giving governments the advantage of tracking your transactions, among many other things. Perhaps, now we may not understand the true potential of implants, but in the future it would prove to be an exceptional tool to provide convenience, security, and reliability to people in a highly evolving society. Just my opinion.

Don't let others control your BTC -> self custody

I pesonally don't embrace this idea, I think there should be a limit between humans and technology and this is like breaking that limit for me... so I'm not a fan of the idea.

I wonder if you'll still talk about limits when you're in need of a pacemaker, artificial limb, hearing implant, laser sight correction and so on. If the limit should be putting a piece of technology into our body, that's been broken years ago. First pacemaker was implanted in 1958 and people have been using electronic implants for over 10 years.
