The 2mm by 12mm chips only store 888 bytes... Shouldn't it be 666 bytes?...and just one chip in the right hand, instead of one in each hand?

Put the chip in your shoe, it will be less painful and a lot more practical. :-X Title: Re: [2014-11-11] Man embeds computer chips in hands to store Bitcoin Post by: Swordsoffreedom on November 12, 2014, 08:39:21 AM Quote The glass chips he had implanted were xNTi devices which come pre-installed in syringes to plunge them into the fatty flesh under the skin.
