A company run by the same guy as Dangerous Things is Vivokey, who are hoping to have (among other things) payment capabilities supported by Visa/Mastercard on on upcoming implant, the Apex. That should allow them to be updated with new details so they won't expire permanently: https://www.vivokey.com/apex

I have a beta version that can do crypto operations such as PGP decrypting/signing and generating OTP entirely on the implant.

Taking a look, it looks like they want to be an identity provider as well as hocking implants. tbh it's kinda weirding me out. Does the more complicated stuff like bank payment require a vivokey identity?
