The Extraterrestrial Paintcoin (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781387477029)

Some visitors from Outer Space are finding it difficult to engage in commerce especially among their own compatriots living on Earth because they are not comfortable using Earth currencies such as the Dollar, or the Euro. And their fellow travelers could easily hack into the bitcoin system if they wanted to. Therefore, they are choosing a rare Earth object as a medium of exchange. A small number of these objects are being released and the value will be determined based on the level of speculation as regulated by the League. It will be legal tender on the home planet for the settlement of all debts accumulated while visiting Earth. In the rare event that Earthlings acquire one of these objects they will be allowed to redeem them on any Extraterrestrial planet belonging to the League at a rate to be determined by the local jurisdiction. An Earth artisan has been chosen to create such object. It is a combination of primitive Earth graphics and poetry disguised to avoid suspicion when traded.
