# Points Conversion

The BLU points collected on the Bluwhale profile can be converted into $BLUP in the future, but if you decide to convert them you will not be able to use them for $BLUAI airdrops. $BLUP stands for the loyalty to Bluwhale and is designed for the long-term.

As early BLU point earners and holders, you were one of the first to engage and join Bluwhale's ecosystem. You are not just a member of our journey, but we see you as a part of the team. When you convert your points 1:1 into $BLUP, your holdings will vest with the team's timeline which is linear over 3 years with a 12 months cliff. We believe in the long-term growth of $BLUP and purchased 30-40% of the total allocation to reward you for your loyalty and continued engagement.
