In February 2017, he contested the Podemos leadership voting to determine the party's Secretary-General in the 2nd Citizen Assembly ("Vistalegre II"), presenting himself as the single alternative to the leadership of Pablo Iglesias. Running in a platform vouching for direct democracy, energy transition and free knowledge,[4] he commanded the support of 15,700 members (10.9%) vs the 128,700 votes (89%) commanded by Iglesias.[1] His policy manifesto was focussed on electronic voting and eliminating the bank payment system, replacing banks with a mobile application where each person manages his or her own money without having to rely on a bank to manage it.
