#steemsaturday | Steem Power Investments - Review of Draft Partnership Agreement and Rules

Steem Power Investments

The idea behind Steem Power Investments (SPInvest, account: @spinvest) is that all Steem investments by investors are powered up and leased for at least 20% APR; the income derived from leasing Steem Power is reinvested in more leases or in off-chain investments, for example, other crypto-currencies like Bitcoin and precious metals. At regular intervals, the total holdings are re-evaluated and the token - SPI - is re-valued. Investors can either sell back their tokens to SPInvest or trade them through Steem-Engine.

Draft Partnership Agreement and Club Rules

Two weeks ago, @spinvest published a draft partnership agreement and club rules for establishing Steem Power Investments (SPInvest) as an investment club. You can read the original draft in this post. This post contains my feedback. I've put suggested wording that can just be copied and pasted into the original draft.

General Comments on the Draft Partnership Agreement and Club Rules

These are comprehensive documents. They cover two time periods: the first stage when SPI tokens are being issued from the @spinvest account (the ICO stage) and the second, later stage, when all the tokens have been issued (SPInvest has a limited issue of one million SPI coins).

General suggestions:

• that references to 90 days, 91 days and 3 months all become 91 days.

This is contradicted by Rule 7d.
