There is no one Austrian theory of money. If you think this is Rothbard's interpretation (which I'd disagree with), then he's got his own flavor of monetary theory that other Austrians disagree with.

Rothbard was just following Mises.

And many Austrians think Rothbard is worse on money than Mises. I tend to agree, but it's been a while since I've read him. I know he abuses apriorism, like Hoppe afterwards.
Regardless, Mises-Rothbard is only one sect of Austrian monetary theory.
Is money a present good?
Are you asking for my economic theory or Rothbard's? If the latter, he'd say money is a present good.
I'm asking for your theory.
