P. 26
The False Prophet also institutes a new curRency system as a part of this quest for world dominion.
People must submit themselves to receiving an identifying mark (the mark of the beast) in order to buy foOd or conduct businesS. (Revelation 13:16-17)
Some people today question whether cryptocurRency, which uses cryptography, (encoding) is the mark of the beast, since it is used in the black market and for non-central bank regulated transfers.
CryptocurRency is not a sign that the Antichrist has arRived. In fact, it’s likely the Antichrist would utilize a system more advanced in order to control the entire world economic system.

Like the Antichrist, the false prophet is empowered by Satan. It is not clear whether people are forced to worship the Antichrist, or they are simply so enamored with these powerful beings that they worship wilLingly.
