📰 What Happened
The World Bank's 2025 Global Findex Report shows dramatic growth in financial inclusion, rising from 50% in 2011 to nearly 80% today. The 342-page report highlights that 95% of adults in low/middle-income countries now have digital ID, with only Sub-Saharan Africa lagging at under 70% adoption. The report emphasizes digital public infrastructure (DPI) including digital IDs, data exchange, and fast payment systems as crucial enablers. Approximately 850 million people remain without ID, mostly in Sub-Saharan Africa.
📖 Prophetic Significance
The report's emphasis on 'digital public infrastructure' (DPI) combining digital IDs, data exchange, and payment systems reveals the technical foundation for Revelation's economic control system. The achievement of 95% ID coverage in most regions, coupled with 80% financial account penetration, demonstrates how modern technology has solved the ancient challenge of implementing universal economic surveillance. The World Bank's focus on using digital ID for disaster response particularly aligns with prophecies about economic control during crisis periods. This infrastructure enables instant account access or restriction based on compliance - a capability never before possible at this scale.
