# Auction As the game of BTC PixelWar progresses and the remaining pixel count drops below 3,000, a thrilling event is triggered: the auction. This one-time event adds a final layer of excitement and strategy to the game. ### **How the Auction Works** * **Triggering the Auction**: When fewer than 3,000 pixels remain, the auction begins. The remaining pixels are put up for sale in this exclusive event. * **Bidding for Pixels**: Players can bid for the remaining pixels, with the highest bidder at the end of the auction winning the right to purchase them. It's a race against time and fellow players to secure the final pieces of the canvas. * **Automatic Auction**: If no higher bid is placed within six blocks during the auction, the remaining pixels are automatically auctioned off. This ensures that all available pixels are eventually submitted, keeping the game's momentum alive. The auction in BTC PixelWar is more than just a closing event; it's a final challenge, a last opportunity to make your mark on the canvas. With the clock ticking and the stakes high, the auction turns the endgame into a thrilling showdown. Whether you're aiming to complete your masterpiece or seeking to secure a winning position, the auction offers a chance to strategize, compete, and triumph in the closing moments of the game. Get ready for the auction, and may the best bidder win! --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
