[lo-shouldve-been-an-email]

Okay,since I’ve just randomly randomly just reblogging Thanatos things,I decided to actually post things,more specifically an LO rewrite because f it.

At its core I do think LO is a good story,just that bad writing has squandered any potential it has to be good,so please have my take on this.(more specifically my take on Persephone,hades,and Thanatos because I have to stay on brand)

Anyways-

(The sequel)

Persephone:

She’s older.shes physically in her late 20’s/early 30’s and about seven to eight centuries older.

Her AoW only extended to those ransacking the garden.(I swear,it would have been so much more understandable to root for her if it only extended to 4-5 people instead of an ENTIRE CITY,since we know other gods have done much worse)

Her work in the underworld was mandated by Zeus as community service for the AoW.

This is more or less Zeus hitting two birds with one stone,he gets perse to make community service and maybe(hopefully) gets hades to open up to the smucks outside of the underworld because he now has an employee not from there.

Due to her guilt about the AoW,she decides that while she’s working in the underworld she’ll set out to be the best her she can be and make up for the souls she took.

At first nobody really likes her and they just think she’s someone who needed to be dragged here by Zeus and won’t amount to anything,but she ends up being the hardest working of the staff and getting a fairly infamous “employee of the month” streak,her only real fumble being Sisyphus(of which she rightfully corrected totally not being getting Hermes to drag his ass down back to the underworld and give his his infamous punishment,of which instantly gave her back any respect she lost.

She’s the type of person you think you can disrespect until she gets genuinely mad at someone,in which case everyone goes out of their way to be nice to her even though it takes a lot to get her mad.

Demeter never sheltered her,just that she heard from her mother and brother(oh yeah Plutus is in this au their twins) about the shit that happened up their(even saw it for herself a few times)and decided to nope out of that drama.

She likes the underworld a more than Olympus due to the fact people don’t get butthurt nearly as much,due to them needing to deal with crap from other gods and sometimes mortals(like Sisyphus)

Demeter was an amazing mama and nobody can convince me otherwise.

Plutus told her about the underworld so she does know a bit,but otherwise it’s a cultural shock.

She brings homemade baklava in every day of work.

She actually sent a letter to Demeter telling her about the community service…however she never got it thanks to a certain daughter of Nyx always dead set on causing discord.

Hades:

It took him two solid seconds to realize what Zeus’ plan was with Persephone so he initially looked for any reason to fire her,until he learned she was here for community service and just decided to wait out her punishment(jokes on him Zeus forgot to tell perse what her sentence was so she worked in the underworld for like a year until demeter found her when in reality she was supposed to be there for like two months)

He does eventually soften up to her(obviously) but it takes a while and a lot of baklava.

Honest to god I have no idea how to incorporate minthe in this au

Leuce is his dead wife,she died fairly recently so he’s still hesitant to connect with anyone.(“I miss my wife,Thanatos,I miss her a lot I’ll be back-“)

Recently he’s been coping via sinking into his work,Hecate and the others have taken notice but they don’t really know what to do.(their the ones that CAUSE death not deal with it)

He slowly started distancing himself from the rest of his family after the titanomachy and even more so after leuce died.

The only person he acts openly soft around is Thanatos,who he views as a son.

The only part of his extended family he interacts with is Hermes,who he actually has a really good relationship with(albeit still strained since leuce)

Fuck it.everyone has flowers symbolism.

Hades is white lilies(subject to change),perse is asphodels,thanatos(and Hypnos) is poppies,leuce is forget-me-nots,Demeter is daylilies,Plutus is orchids,Hecate is nightshades or cow parsley.

Thanatos:

He genuinely finds it hard to focus on doing his job,so people just call him lazy,so he doesn’t really try to set the bar high in return because he knows he’ll just end up disappointing everyone.

The only person who doesn’t have low expectations and wants him to try his best at his own rate is hades,who understands he finds it hard to focus but still wants him to try his best anyways.

Rotates between living with hades and Nyx(who is an extremely doting mother.

Hypnos still resides within the hr department and Thanatos helps him hide because the last thing he needs is a grumpy Hypnos.

He deals with peaceful deaths while Hermes and the keres deal with the rest.

He’s the type of person to tell himself one moment he’s gonna be really productive today and then spend the next fifteen minutes chatting away with a butterfly.

Also he can talk to butterflies.but nobody believes him except Hermes,perse,and Nyx.

The moment he finds out what Eris did she gets the “WHY WOULD YOU THINK THIS IS A GOOD IDEA?!?!!?” Of her life.then queue Thanatos and the other Nyx children present trying to get her to explain why she thought this was a good idea and her just saying “bc it’s funny”

Erebus = dad with no physical body who still interact with me via shadows.hades = dad with physical body who I want to impress but I don’t know how.

(If you didn’t catch on he has adhd)

Book give- away: Financial Feminist by Tori Dunlap!

Welcome back to another Bitch Nation book give-away!

Today I'm positively thrilled to announce that we're giving away a copy of Tori Dunlap's Financial Feminist, hot off the press from HarperCollins. Tori is the TikTok sensation behind Her First $100k and the Financial Feminist podcast. She has dedicated her career to helping folks (young women in particular) discover their power in the financial realm.

We've known Tori since way back, when she was but a wee marketing specialist just finding her way toward financial independence. Back then we were the big-timers and she was still building her brand. But uh... things have fucking changed! Kitty's partner describes our relationship with Tori as "two clownfish raising a shark." ACCURATE.

Here's us celebrating with Tori when we won our Plutus Awards at FinCon in 2018:

We're giving away a hardcover copy of her new book (she fancy). We're still working on getting audiobook and ebook editions of books for reviews to make our give-aways more accessible. Here are the rules:

1. Go to our Patreon and comment. You do NOT have to be a patron! Say anything. Points if you make us laugh.

2. We'll choose a winner from among the people who commented. Completely random. We have the technology! The deadline is this Friday 3/31/23 at 5 p.m. Eastern time.

3. We'll announce the winner on our Patreon and send them the book! If necessary, we'll reach out for your address.

Because this is a public post, you don't have to be a patron to enter the give-away. But we sure would appreciate it if you kicked us a dollar or five! It takes many dollars to keep this machine running and every little bit helps.

If you miss out this time, don't worry! We get lots of opportunities to read and review books for the blog, and we love sharing the wealth with you, our beloved audience. So you'll definitely have another chance.

With that... comment away, bitchlings!

𝗣𝗘𝗥𝗦𝗢𝗡𝗔𝗟𝗜𝗧𝗬 and Backstory:

The Seemingly Lazy , Carefree  Dorm Leader and Purple  sector leader . Hes seems to  have Bouts of  Being Energetic, Ditzy and Fun loving to Lazy and sleepy .He’s Laziness is often Compared to Peko’s. 

However Plutus’s Brand of Laziness is more like Let’s get out of   Work  by doing something  fun or working on a personal Project  instead of what He needs to or basically procrastinating . But he’s always willing to Get Serious And Work when He absolutely needs to get something done .

Plutus is also known for having a “ mean streak” often call “ Pluto” which Dorm Members  usually happening when he’s really mad or Upset a lot people  like “Pluto “ to Floyd or Jade Someone to likes to teach people a Lesson this is not like an Alter , but so a side of Plutus that no one wants to see . 

Plutus tends to break the fourth wall most often . Hes a bit of an Airhead and rather Careless though . However he Generally wants people to be happy .

Plutus nor his Brothers were not  born in the Shroud family rather they were said to have Come from the Sky a short time after Ortho’s Death , Still being Kids.  The Shroud Family took them and adopted them to” fill a Void “ from Ortho’s Passing. However, Idia seemed to hate them as Plutus would often overheard Idia

 “ How could they just replace Him with three other kids?”

“ It’s not Fair to him .” 

It’s seemed like Anything they did made Idia Dislike them even more.  Sometimes even telling them to Stop Copying him . Of course finding out Idia was making a Robot of his Brother Which disturbed him but, cant  to bring himself to Blame Idia and Besides Ortho’s Adorable.

Plus the Fact that STYX as an organization didn’t match his Morals at one point Over hearing that planned to “ capture “ the People from NRC who over blotted and Tried to get him to capture the Overblotted   in HSA. He Refused Saying “ You want them your Going to have to Kill me .”

The “ Pluto” part of his Personality is much more Prevalent in HDD  though Plutus can hold back his more Sadistic Urges , coming off as more confident ,Seductive and serious while still being a bit air headed

Unique Magic - Genesis OverDrive 

Plutus Can make Anyone or anything Into a “Weapon” based on Personality and What Plutus think they’d look good as .   The Weapon is Kinda  like Soul eater they can still See, Talk  and React.  He can also make himself into  a weapon … If a Small  sentient Stealth Bomber counts as a Weapon.

Trivia 

Plutus’s Birthday is The date The first Hyperdimension Neptunia game came out .

Plutus’s Utter hatred of Eggplant is also a Common Gag In Neptunia . 

Most of People have learned their Lesson about irritating Plutus. Most people never come out the Same.

Plutus having sadistic tendencies comes from Plutia/Iris Heart as well as his Ability to make Dolls .

He gave  a Doll of  Nanoya to Flynn.

Unlike Alban Who almost Everyone in Polisionalle try to (Rather rudely ) avoid like he’s the Plauge, They welcome this kid with open arms.. Have I mentioned Altus and Sega have Collaborated .

Some have also tried to convince Him that Alban is bad New but Plutus knows Alban is Rough around the Edges and what will Make Alban “Pull the Trigger “ .. Flynn and Rubina are on the List of things that will make Alban go nuts.

Everyone is Surprised that this Ditzy Kid is a math tutor and a very good one due his causal laidback Nature .

Plutus’s Brothers are based on Nepgear and Uzume .

 Plutus ‘s UM Comes from a series of ExE skills Neptune has call ( Insert Character):HDD  where a CPU would be Transformed into a Weapon to Aid Neptune in an Attack

Just to Mention What I think  The Weapon Forms of some of the Dorm leaders would be

Flynn- Appropriately, would Be Throwing cards or a Fan 

Peko - A Telsa Coil Lance or a Monster Truck something just Surprisingly Badass instead of Girly .

Tyler - I’m very tempted to make the Kill la Kill  and go With Giant Sisscors

Gabrielle - Dragon Mech  

Aiden - A Giant Sword that looks like his Dagger.

Sidren - Thats Hard She could possibly be the Gauntlets Syndrome had.

Dragiselle - a Literal Flaming Shield or a Flamethrower .

Voice Claim - Yuya Sakaki  and Yuri (in HDD and “Pluto”)

Freshworks Founder Mathrubootham Advocates for Founders to Participate in Secondary Sales

Girish Mathrubootham, founder and executive chairman of Freshworks, has voiced strong support for founders utilizing secondary share sales to address significant personal expenses and focus on growing their businesses. He argues that many entrepreneurs come from middle-class backgrounds and may find substantial secondary sales—such as $5 million or $25 million—very appealing, especially when such funds can resolve critical personal financial issues like home loans. By alleviating these pressures, founders can concentrate more effectively on scaling their companies.

Mathrubootham made these remarks on August 9 during a panel discussion at the Moneycontrol Startup Conclave in Bengaluru. The panel, moderated by Moneycontrol deputy executive editor Chandra R Srikanth, also featured Mithun Sacheti, former CEO and founder of CaratLane, and was centered around the theme "Chennai Super Kings: Building, Scaling, and Stepping Back: The Founder’s Arc."

The practice of founders selling shares in secondary markets has sparked debate among investors and entrepreneurs. For instance, Nitish Mittersain, founder of Nazara Technologies, faced criticism after selling a 6.38% stake to Plutus Wealth Management, a pre-IPO investor. Mittersain defended this decision, explaining that the sale was necessary to provide liquidity for his family, despite the company remaining under promoter control.

Similarly, Swiggy co-founders Sriharsha Majety and Nandan Reddy, along with other staff members, are planning to sell shares as part of a $65 million employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) liquidity event. Founders of Mamaearth, Varun Alagh and Ghazal Alagh, also sold about 32.86 lakh shares out of their 10.67 crore shareholding in the beauty brand. Additionally, Supam Maheshwari, founder of FirstCry, sold 6.2 million shares before the company's IPO filing in January.

In a related vein, Ashneer Grover, former founder of BharatPe, advised founders in his book Doglapan, published on X (formerly Twitter) in 2022, to prioritize their financial security and capitalize on opportunities to sell stock through secondary markets. Grover suggested that at least 80% of the proceeds from secondary sales should benefit the founders, with the remaining 20% allocated to ESOP holders and angel investors.

Title: Dread and Destruction

Pairing: Deimos!Alexios x Fem!Reader

Rating: T

Summary: You left the Cult of Kosmos, it’s time he does too.

THE FEVER BREAKS but you still wake in a cold sweat surrounded by darkness. A dull throbbing in your leg returns. The poisoned arrow leaves its mark on you and the minds of the Cultist. You’re no longer immortal to them –your usefulness has run its course.

Out of the darkness, a flickering light appears and grows brighter –larger and reflects off golden armor. Deimos. You’re both relieved and terrified to see him. "They're going to kill you," he says and you draw in a deep breath, looking around the prison for a weapon. You couldn't fight him though, not in this state. Deimos throws down a pack and dark cloak next to you and kneels. You lean back, eyes meeting his –waiting for him to draw his blade to do the Cult’s bidding. "You have to leave," he tells you.

Your brows knit together. Deimos shoves the hem of your stained chiton up and takes a strip of linen, laying it over the wound on your upper thigh and wrapping it tightly. You can’t help the chill that creeps down your spine at the feel of his rough fingers against your heated skin.

You want to ask why he is going to such lengths to help –deep down you already know, but you want to hear it in his own words. Deimos pulls you off the ground and leads you deeper into the cave, past the Cult of Kosmos’s meeting chamber. The path grows narrower and then turns upward. Star and moonlight filters through a dense canopy covering the hidden entrance. A horse is waiting –your sword and bow already secured to the saddle. You turn back to Deimos. "What about you?" The cult would not let him act without punishment –demigod or not.

Deimos shakes his head. "No questions-" he motions to the horse "-go."

You and he are kindred souls, bound by misfortune. Trembling, you surge forward, pressing your lips against his. He seizes your waist, drawing you closer. You’ve always been his source of rapture away from the dread and destruction. Your hand caresses the side of his face, following the scar below his eye –you’d put it there yourself years ago. Stepping back, you mount the pale mare and look back over your shoulder. “I’ll find you,” you promise. Fate had always led you back to one another.

FREE FROM THE Cult’s control, you seek retribution for the years of pain endured under their heel. Freedom makes you see you’d only ever been a puppet in their schemes and Deimos is still their pawn. They’d given you training and praised, called you the daughter of gods, but never once thought what should happen if you went rogue.

Perched in the rafters of a temple –you wait. You’d always been the more patient one. Worshippers rise and flee when he enters. The Cultist kneels, placing a coin at the feet of Plutus in offering. You move in the shadows, then pounce.

Midas slumps against the altar, hand clawing at the open gash on his neck –prayers unheard. Before the gurgling stops, you kick his body over and drive a bronze dagger through his heart. The last thing Midas sees is you smiling with blood on your face. Rising from the slain Cultist, you wipe the blood from the dagger in a stained cloth –not realizing you aren’t alone. The point of a blade digs into your back. "Tell me why I shouldn't kill you right now." The voice is familiar. The Eagle Bearer.

“Because I just did your work for you,” you remark, glancing down at Midas’s lidless eyes.

“Try again,” Kassandra sneers.

You sigh, dropping the dagger you’d had pressed into her side. “I left the Cult,” you tell her. The Eagle Bearer steps back and you present her with the golden artifact that belonged to Midas. She does not sheath the broken spear though. "And I can help you bring them to their knees.” You’d been hunting Cultist and their accomplices like animals. Midas was the thirteenth to fall on your blade.  

“I saw you with my brother,” she hisses, disbelieving.

Though before you can say anything else a civilian enters the temple and screams after seeing you and Kassandra standing over the corpse of Argos’s banker. Soon after soldiers and guards are shouting in the distance. "Your brother is the only reason I'm alive," you admit –the thought of Deimos softening your expression. "I suggest we leave quickly."

Kassandra lowers her spear, reluctant and you flee. "Malákas!" The Eagle Bear curses, giving pursuit before she is found standing over the body of Midas –she doesn’t need another mercenary looking to collect the bounty on her head.

WAVES ROCK THE Adrestia to and fro. A lit brazier separates you and Kassandra. Since deciding to work together, five more cultists have fallen, but now it is time for answers that did not come from the dying. The Eagle Bearer demands answers and you offer them freely. "Chrysis always took children in pairs," you explain. "My mother abandoned me the same night yours was told Alexios was dead." Fate had brought them together, just as Chrysis said the Pythia ordained.

"We grew up together. Trained together. Fought together-" the briefest of smiles flash across your lips "-we were unstoppable." People feared the very mention of your names, of the things you could do. Together you and Deimos could bring cities to their knees in a night, could shape the tides of war. Still, despite the titles and praise, you were only mortal. "But we were sloppy sometimes and that came with punishment."

Kassandra clasps her hands together, feels something twist in her stomach. Chrysis will die for the things she'd done. You glance down at the scars on your arms then look to the heavens. "We were taught to expect pain." The world is pain. At first, it was lashes, then brands –if a Child of Kosmos ran out of room for a mark they were discarded.

Though for Deimos and you, the Cult had to become creative in their punishments. A brand did nothing to someone who did not cry out in agony or beg for release. "What they found is they could hurt us more by hurting each other." The first time Deimos let a target escape their grasp, Okytos the Great had carved lines into your back and rubbed salt in the wound. Deimos swore he'd kill Okytos for that.

"What is he like?" Kassandra asks. Her little brother is a stranger to her.

You shrug. "Irascible and stubborn mostly." That tended to be the temperament of most men though, but Deimos is different. He brought the wrath of gods and was like a rock rising from the sea. "Even the Cultist fear him." He was a puppet for the Ghost of Kosmos, but sometimes he tested the length of his leash. There was a time when both you and he commanded the Sages and Adepts.

"He's always been different with me, though," you admit. There had always been a certain degree tenderness in his touches and gaze. Even his words were not harsh. "Softer." Is the word you use to describe the Deimos no one but you know.

The Eagle Bearer's face falls. "You love him." She's seen that type of expression before many times in her travels. It is the look in a woman's eyes as she sends her husband to war.

You look away. "I love the man he could be. I will help you hunt down every cultist crawling over the Greek world-" you rise to your feet. "-but know we're fighting for different people, Kassandra." You return below deck, hoping the memories would let you know peace for one night. 

AT THE BACK of the cave is a man garbed in silver and gold armor. You recognize him at once, a few seconds later the Eagle Bearer does as well. Kassandra strides forward, but you grip onto her arm, pulling her back to the cave’s entrance. “Let me go alone,” you whisper. Deimos can kill you if that is what the Cult wishes, but Kassandra needs to live.

"Have you lost your fucking mind?" She hisses. "I can't leave you with him!" Your harsh glare makes her reconsider and alas she turns back, returning to the Adrestia.

You descend into the dim cave. Footfalls silent. “Deimos,” you breathe, pushing back the hood of your cloak. Almost two years have passed since you’d fled execution. Now fate brings you together again.

In two large strides, his hand wraps around your throat, pushing you back against the rock. "You left me," he shouts –voice echoing deep in the darkness.

You wrap a hand around his wrist –terrified of the moment when he decided to squeeze. Despite his strength, his face looks thin –tormented. Dark circles ring his eyes. The Cult chips away another piece of him –of his resolve. "You helped me leave," you tell him, breathing shallow.

His face twists, but he drops you and steps back –chest heaving in sync with yours. He’s dreamt of killing you for betraying him, leaving him, but all it takes is one look and he can’t do it. "They said you abandoned me," he grits out.

Rising, you take a step toward him. “I didn’t.” Your fingers brush over the scar on the back of his right hand. You can leave too." He still won’t look at you, but he doesn’t move when you slip your hand into his. "Come with me," you whisper. "The Cult has used us. Broken us." You had only been able to see the truth after leaving and though you were still on a path of vengeance, it was better than being a puppet. "We can be whole."

Deimos shakes his head, chuckling and turns back to face you. There was no going back, no leaving this life. "Not after the things we've done,” he says.

You let his hand go. "But do we not deserve the chance?" You ask, reaching out to touch the scar below his eye.

He knocks your hand away, knowing your touch would ruin him and bring more pain. "I will not listen to your lies," he snarls.

"Alexios." He lashes out, shoving you. Something in you back cracks as you hit the cave wall. "Don't use that name!" Deimos roars, shoulders shaking.

You sit up, closing your eyes and ignoring the pain. “It’s who you are,” you breathe, hands shaking. Your whole body feels as though it is shaking. You open your eyes. Deimos is crouched down before you, dark eyes full of pain and anger, but there is still a glint of the gentleness you’d known before. Your breath catches and takes that as a queue, kissing you.

You hesitate, mind racing. He may have been about to kill you. One last kiss before death. The cold bite of iron never comes. You lean into him and his anger subsides. His hands run down your arms, finding new scars. “Where have you been?” He asks.

"Searching," you shrug, then the briefest of smiles appears on your lips and makes Deimos want to kiss you again. "To discover who I truly am." You reach out toward the scar on his cheek again, this time he does not resist. 

He leans into the touch, unable to admit to himself that he'd missed this. "I cannot leave,” he utters. You already knew that, though. "If they find out you're alive, they'll kill you.” You rest your forehead against his.

You nod, knowing well how the Cult of Kosmos operates. "I would expect nothing less.” Then something akin to fear appears in your eyes. "But what if they gave you the order?" You ask.

Deimos turns his head, swallows hard. "I-" he hesitates – the answer should have been easy, but it wasn't. "I couldn't," he whispers. The words should have brought you relief, but they did not.

You lift your hand to his cheek, bringing his troubled gaze back to you. “We are bound by fate,” you murmur, leaning forward. He grabs the back of your neck, closing the distance between you. You brace one hand on his breastplate, the other tangles in his hair. His kiss is bruising –a punishment in itself. Pulling away, you run your thumb over his lips. When you kiss him, it makes his heart ache and his body go weak. "The gods will always bring us back together," you tell him as you part, hands caressing both sides of his face.

You both rise. He has been away too long, the Cult will begin searching for him. Deimos grips onto your hands before you can leave the cave. "Stay out of my way, please." He doesn’t want to be faced with a decision he'd grow to regret.

You smile and Deimos knows a piece of your former self persists. "Only if you stay out of mine."

What should be kept in mind while choosing a top IAS coaching in Chennai?

Horus: What is one thing you’ve had to fight for in your life?- every single fucking thing. i had to fight to go to college, fight to move out, fight to be treated like an equal to my peers, fight for simple material shit like a car and comfortable enough place. fight and work for love so so so hard. i wish i had just ONE (1)! thing come easy to me. i was kinda bright growing up but that’s about it?

Crypto FinTech, Plutus, Partners With Travel and Accommodation Giants Airbnb & Skyscanner

The London-based FinTech start-up, Plutus, reveals the formation of 22 partnerships with internationally known brands as part of a unique loyalty programme.

Press Release – updated: Feb 21, 2020 08:30 GMT

LONDON, February 21, 2020 (Newswire.com) –Plutus is a finance app that claims to be “Better than a Bank”, offering management of both crypto and fiat from a single interface. The app comes…

A Visa Card That Offers Crypto Back & Cash Back — How One Fintech Has Reshaped Loyalty Programmes Forever

In 1981, American Airlines’ launched their Frequent Flier Programme which is often regarded as the first full-scale loyalty programme of the modern era. As technology evolved, loyalty programmes progressed into a data-grabbing tool for brands, masked under marketing as “beneficial perks” for the shopper. Despite this, over half of customers rated rewards as important for both big-ticket, and small, habitual purchases according to a recent research study by Wirecard. With this in mind, it is highly important for brands to retain their customers through additional incentives; especially given the increasingly saturated retail markets. A New Wave of Loyalty Programmes One company breaking the mould is Plutus, a London based FinTech startup who has just unveiled its plan for an innovative and lucrative rewards programme. The company currently offers a finance app that allows users to manage/convert/spend both crypto and fiat from a single interface in what they claim to be “Better than a Bank” Plutus introduced the world’s first decentralised loyalty token and their recent announcement focuses on multiple new use cases for the innovative rewards. What does this mean exactly? Traditional centralised loyalty reward programmes have always been fixed to specific stores, meaning there are a limited number of opportunities to earn rewards. Plutus, however, has fixed their loyalty programme to a Visa Debit Card, meaning you can earn rewards at over 400 million merchants (online and in-store) across the world. Anywhere that Visa is accepted, you can earn crypto back as loyalty rewards. The loyalty rewards are a cryptocurrency token called Pluton (PLU). Every time a user spends with their Plutus Card they will earn up to 3% of the purchase back in PLU. What Can you do with these PLU? Why is it so Groundbreaking? A company press release recently outlined a number of new use-cases for the token which sets it apart from any other loyalty programme. Firstly, being decentralised not only means that the token can be earnt anywhere, but it also means it can be transferred to other people. Traditional loyalty programmes like Nectar points are stuck on a single account; PLU, on the other hand, can be sent to friends or family on the blockchain. Secondly, being decentralised means that it carries its own fiat value determined by external markets. Plutus members can convert their earnt PLU into additional fiat to continue spending anywhere in the world. Plutus has integrated a decentralised exchange into its platform to make converting PLU into spendable currency as easy as possible. However, the most astonishing reveal was the introduction of additional cashback on top of the 3% cryptoback (PLU). Plutus has formed affiliate partnerships with internationally known, billion-dollar companies to offer cashback to Plutus Members spending with their Plutus Card. This means that every qualified member will stand a chance earning double rewards; a 3% cryptoback reward in PLU and a % cashback reward in their local currency loaded straight into their Plutus account. So far the team has only revealed two of the affiliate partners but these are two of the largest travel and accommodation giants in the world, Airbnb and Skyscanner. The CEO & Founder of Plutus commented: “Our members will now be able to tap into the colossal online marketplace of Airbnb and Skyscanner. These are key partnerships that’ll enable us to offer double-dip rewards, both cryptoback and cashback”. Innovation and Future Plans As the loyalty rewards sector continues to grow, we continue to see different forms of innovation; and cash-back on top of crypto-back is certainly something new to emerge. According to the Plutus team, there are more transformative features scheduled for release that will significantly elevate their position in the market. The product has had a strong entry into 2020, and it puts themselves on the map for a strong year ahead in the crypto card game. If you haven’t already, you can read the full list of use-cases for the Pluton token here.
