End-Block

Auction Settlement

The settlement of a given auction round occurs when blockTime ≥ EndingTimeStamp. If a non-zero INJ bid was placed during this period (i.e. there exists a LastBid), the following procedure will take place:

• The winning INJ bid amount is burned.
• The basket of coins held by the auction module is transferred to the winning bidder.
• LastAuctionResult is written to state and EventAuctionResult is emitted.
• The LastBid is cleared.
• The AuctionRound is incremented by 1 and the EndingTimestamp is incremented by AuctionPeriod.
• The accumulated exchange fees are transferred from the exchange module to the auction module for the new upcoming auction.

If the round closed without any successful bids, the existing coin basket will be rolled over into the next auction and combined with the new accumulated fee basket.
