Market: auctions and offers

Original cards, traded in BEM. Sellers can auction or set a buy-now price; buyers can post a standing offer for a drawing and wait for a holder to accept.

What it is

There are two ways to trade an original card in BEM. An auction lists one card and lets bidders compete until the timer ends. A buyer offer is a standing buy order for one drawing: the buyer locks BEM, and any holder of a numbered original card of that drawing can choose a card and accept. Both settle on chain, and both take 1% at settlement.

Auctions

• List — the seller sets a reserve, a duration, and optionally a buy-now price. The card moves into the auction contract.
• Bid — each new bid must be at least 5% above the current highest. A bid inside the last 5 minutes extends the end by 5 minutes.
• Buy now — if the seller set a buy-now price, anyone can take the card immediately at that price and the auction ends.
• Settle — when the timer ends, the highest bid takes the card. Anyone can trigger settlement. With no bids, the seller can reclaim the card.

Buyer offers · 求购

A buyer can post a standing offer for any one of the eleven drawings. The buyer does not choose a specific card or edition. The offer amount is locked in BEM inside TapeFoundryDrawingOfferBook; any holder of a numbered original card of that drawing can accept and choose which card to sell. The card and BEM change hands in one transaction.

• Drawing-level — the buyer picks a drawing, an amount, and an expiry; any numbered original card of that drawing can be accepted.
• Escrowed BEM — the buyer's BEM is held by the contract, not sent to the seller until a seller accepts.
• Seller chooses the card — the seller sees their matching cards and picks which one to sell.
• One active offer per drawing — a buyer can have only one active offer for the same drawing.
• Cancel or expire — the buyer can cancel at any time; after expiry the BEM can still be withdrawn. The maximum offer duration is 30 days.
• No auto-matching — the seller must accept explicitly; there is no backend that sells a card for them.
• Grouped by drawing — offers for the same drawing collapse into one row, sorted by amount so small offers do not flood the list. Expand a group to see every offer and choose.

Fees

1% of the final auction price or accepted offer is taken at settlement and sent to the treasury wallet. There is no listing fee.

What it does not do

Only original cards on the processor are accepted. A wrapped TFD cannot be auctioned or used for an offer — unwrap it first. Cards that are staked in the miner or escrowed in an auction must be released before a seller can accept an offer. There are no off-chain offers, no automatic matching, and the buyer-offer flow does not let a buyer request a specific edition.
