I think really plutocracy + anything is dystopia. There’s just no way a small group of wealthy elites can organize society to pursue their (the plutocrats’) interests without devolving to dystopia.
Some of the best things about society are that plutocrats can be brought to justice and market forces can bring financial empires down. These are extremely critical sorts of checks & balances on plutocracy, and we need to entrench them more and more, to make it harder and harder for plutocrats to hide from legal or financial consequences.
