The Yacht Charter industry, like any other sector, is subject to various laws and regulations that must be adhered to. One of the key challenges for OSEAN DAO will be to bridge the gap between the digital crypto world and the traditional physical world of yacht ownership and operation. To address this challenge, OSEAN DAO plans to form an LLC in Marshall Islands, which recognizes DAOs as legal entities. This will enable OSEAN DAO to acquire Single Purpose Entities (SPEs) that will hold physical assets, such as yachts. These SPEs will be formed for each yacht, depending on its operational location, and will be owned by OSEAN DAO. At the end of each fiscal year, the SPEs will make their balance sheets available to OSEAN DAO. After taking into account depreciation and withholding liquidity amounts, the remaining funds will be directed back to OSEAN DAO through a trustee and converted to crypto. These funds will then be directed to NFT holders as dividends in $OSEAN tokens. By implementing this structure, OSEAN DAO will create a transparent and auditable process that ensures proper accounting and reporting of the financial performance of each yacht. This will not only enable OSEAN DAO to make informed investment decisions, but also provide NFT holders with a clear understanding of the financial performance of their investments. Moreover, the use of $OSEAN as the currency of the OSEAN DAO economy will create a deflationary token with an increasing market cap. This will provide a unique investment opportunity for those looking to invest in the yacht charter industry, as well as those interested in the potential of cryptocurrency-backed investments. Overall, OSEAN DAO's focus on legal compliance, transparency, and accountability will provide a solid foundation for the long-term success and sustainability of the project --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.
