Phase 0: Humanitarian Emergency (First 180 Days)
The first 100 days of the plan. What gets done immediately so people feel the change: pensions from Day 1, safety on the streets, internet in schools, teacher salaries multiplied.
No citizen will believe in a sovereign fund if they don't have water, food, or medicine. 80% of the population below the poverty line. The UN raised only 17% of its USD 600M appeal.

Sprint 0: The First 100 Days
If there are no visible results in 100 days, the plan is politically dead. There is no second chance. — Bukele
The first 100 days determine whether the plan has credibility or is just another document no one executes. Every action here is a signal — to the citizen, to the investor, to the diaspora, to the world. It's not about solving everything. It's about proving that this is different.

An investor decides in 10 minutes whether to put in money. A citizen decides in 100 days whether to believe in the plan. Everything that happens in this sprint is Venezuela's pitch deck to the world. If it's convincing, the USD 183B will come. If not, the memes will come.
