AI-assisted interpretation

Auction mode is the stage before formal continuous trading: users can place limit orders, but orders will not be executed temporarily; after the auction ends, eligible orders will be matched at the opening price.
Why it matters to readers
This indicates that the CT-USD trading pair is progressing through the opening process, but the materials do not specify when the auction will end.
Beginners should note that submitting a limit order does not mean it will be executed immediately; at least during the auction period, it will not be executed.
Risks and unknowns
The materials do not specify when the auction will end.
The materials do not confirm whether normal continuous matching will begin after the auction ends.
