It's just a chip...
The real mccoy here is plain old money...
You'll see the difference in the Greek Translation. What is said about it in Greek is to "Aggressively take hold of the coin...". Obviously, that is the coin of the Roman Empire.
It is simply saying "those who are eager to have money". Not literally about a microchip impant. Although it's related since the microchip would probably used for commerce in the future.
Nothing wrong with having money, what makes it wrong is to aggressively take hold of it because if you do, you can't be a faithful servant of God, you can't be a good steward. If a brother or sister needs help, you will deny them help because of your attachment to money. Or you would give them help but it won't be enough because you won't be able to give more.
YOu won't lose your salvation if you had to take it because of a threat..... Not like you took it because you love money and want to have more and enjoy the world.
