The Ultimate in Moving Toward Totalitarian Government Tracking : Bitcoin Computer Chips Embedded Inside the Body

What are these people thinking? They are putting a computer chip in their body that can be read by any number of devices.

The Telegraph reports:

A Dutch entrepreneur has had two wireless computer chips implanted under the skin in his hands to allow him to store digital currencies like Bitcoin inside his body.

Martijn Wismeijer is the founder of Mr Bitcoin, a company which installs and operates crypto-currency cash machines in and around his native Amsterdam and across Europe.

This month he chose to undergo a painful procedure to embed NFC (near-field communication) chips under his skin. These chips can be read by a range of devices including smartphones like the Samsung Galaxy S5 and Apple iPhone 6, and can be adapted for a range of uses.
