So we can upgrade to the platinum card, paying the annual fee oop... but I was wondering if there were other cards we could upgrade to

Upgrade card?

The only upgrade option is platinum. It only makes sense if you fly Delta a lot and will use the lounge. Otherwise just pay the 95 bucks to get the membership rewards and get a personal platinum card.

Think this consolidation period is going to end in the near term, primarily driven by:

1. Microstrategy “open sourcing” their playbook for purchasing BTC as public company

2. Coinbase to offer staking for ETH in Q1 ‘21 - think how much will get locked up.

3. GME / stonks fallout - retail may moreso see the benefits of decentralization and crypto. Yes Coinbase is CEX to get you onboard, but DEX can’t be turned off.

I left Audit at a midsize firm to join KPMG erp implementation consulting about 6 months ago.
