Talk:Mondex

Untitled
Ha! I can't believe that Wikipedia would allow this misinformation to exist on their site. It just goes to show that the webmasters are not looking at the information and verifing the credibility of the posts. Just as an FYI for those out there who are quaking in their boots right now. MONDEX ONLY produced SMART CARDS, not biological implants! Verichip is NOT ASSOCIATED at all with Mondex. This information is bunk!

Oh, just to give you information on the words Mon Dex -

The Greek word for Right-Hand is Dexioserious, another variation is dexiteros (not Dexter, as you have been misinformed)

The Greek words for Money (we will start with the Ms) are; Mesenguema, Meon, Misarguria, and Mna (not Monatary). I could list hundreds of additional words that the Greek language can use for money.

The word Mondex means nothing at all in Greek.

Now, that having been said, the company Mondex drives it's name from Monde (meaning World) which makes sense considering they are looking to replace normal currency with their smart cards (not biometric chips).

French; Money: Argent Right-Hand: main droite World: Monde (MONDEx)

Just a couple of facts from someone who worked on Mondex in its early days:

1) The name Mondex was intended to suggest "Money" "Monde" (French for world) and perhaps "Exchange", since an important part of the design was the ability to hold multiple currencies on one card.

2) A previous version of this page referred to a "religious controversy" in which Mondex was linked the Book of Revelation and 666 as the Number of the Beast. This was deleted as being uncited. Nevertheless, such accusations were made in the press at the time.
