Looks like people's imaginations have been running a little wild.  

To clear a few things up:

1.) I have not been active in the thread because I am on vacation.

2.) The book will be sold for US Dollars at major retailers i.e. Barnes and Nobles and Amazon

3.) I have retained the rights to sell the book for digital currency; I am currently working to get a Tier 1 payment processor on board before the book release in November.

4.) I am currently buying NAUT on Mintpal at 13k

I am very serious about NAUT and committed to making it successful.

I don't have the time or the inclination to read all the craziness - if you are unhappy with NAUT please move on to the 400 other coins that are available.
