Renan Santos unveils fiscal reform and blockchain-based government plan

Renan Santos Missão party 2026 Brazilian election fiscal reform blockchain technology

Renan Santos, presidential candidate for the Missão party, has unveiled a comprehensive government plan focused on fiscal adjustment and market-oriented reforms. The proposal, filed with the TSE, aims to position Brazil as one of the world's five largest economies by implementing a new expenditure control regime via constitutional amendment. The plan estimates potential savings of over R$ 1 trillion by 2031 through measures such as administrative reform, reducing tax benefits, and de-indexing social security benefits from the minimum wage.

During recent campaign events, including the Blockchain Rio 2026 forum, Santos advocated for the adoption of blockchain technology to increase transparency in political processes, such as party affiliations and the tracking of parliamentary amendments. He also expressed a commitment to making Brazil a crypto-friendly nation, proposing a national Bitcoin reserve.

On security matters, Santos criticized the current administration's handling of organized crime and suggested that federal interventions might be necessary in states like Bahia, Ceará, and Rio de Janeiro if local governments fail to act effectively. Additionally, he criticized the business elite for their perceived silence regarding the Bolsonaro family, arguing that the country is trapped in a false polarization between the PT and Bolsonarism.
