The Financial Innovation for Impact institute and Cambridge Centre for Alternative Finance have launched a worldwide survey examining how governments and regulators are deploying electronic Know Your Customer (eKYC) digital identity systems across global financial markets. This accelerating push toward universal digital identity infrastructure — backed by the Gates Foundation — mirrors the prophetic framework of a coming global system capable of controlling who may participate in commerce. Revelation 13:17 warns of a time when no one can buy or sell without compliance with a centralised identification and control system.
