So a digital identity system needs to be implemented. Something akin to what quite a few countries have already implemented.

I'm unsure why it would require more discussion at this point. It's not hypothetical science fiction without practical examples.

Well to start, the assholes using a South Dakota trust held by a Nevada LLC to run a Delaware corporation would have a harder time hiding their beneficial ownership and might have to pay taxes.

Also the “mark of the beast” crowd is real, really loud and politically powerful.

Can't that be bypassed by implementing the system but making it voluntary? That crowd is honestly quite unfathomable to me.

If it practically excludes people from transacting it kind of plays into the prophecy. That's how people go off on bank accounts and debit and credit cards as being the mark of the beast.
