The World Bank has published a 56-page policy guide outlining a five-layer framework for governments to build trusted digital wallet ecosystems, emphasising cross-border interoperability and legal recognition of digital credentials across jurisdictions. This push toward a globally interoperable digital identity and wallet infrastructure represents a significant step toward the kind of centralised economic control system described in end-times prophecy. Revelation 13:16-17 warns of a coming global system where no one can buy or sell without a mark — the architecture being built today is laying the precise technical and governance foundations for such a system.
