I believe this is one of the things prophesized in the Bible. Just consider that 2000 years ago there was no knowledge of electricity, batteries, circuits, implants, or anything that would allow the transfer of money or goods and be capable of maintaining a balance of accounts. I believe it is the beginning of the end. I'm not saying the end is near, I'm only pointing out one more piece of the puzzle has been put in place.
There was quite a bit they didn't know about--including banks, double entry bookkeeping, vaccination, the internal combustion engine, gunpowder, iron plows, stirrups, etc, etc, etc. The writers of the New Testament (and apparently Jesus himself) thought they were near the end of time. Since they were wrong (unless you give a really extended meaning to 'near'), people have been finding signs that the end really is near this time ever since. There are reasons to find implanted micro chips pretty creepy, but I don't think they have any relationship to the Bible.
