# Welcome to the BAWSAQ Arena

A GTA city you can walk into, run on the BAWSAQ token, with an arena that pays real BAWSAQ to the last one standing.

**Ah shit, here we go again.** You know the meme. This is the game around it: a hand-built Los Santos in your browser, no download, no account. You walk, you drive, you read the lore, you kick people. And in the middle of it all is an arena where 1,000 BAWSAQ buys you one life in a five-minute fight, and the survivors leave with the pot.

Everything runs on [BAWSAQ](https://www.bawsaq.org), the people's exchange on Robinhood Chain. The 47 companies listed there are real places in the city. Their prices are live on the tower. The arena's money is real, on-chain, and paid out to your own wallet.

## What this is, in one minute

* **A city.** Grove Street, the Ganton alley from the meme, Ballas turf, the Badlands, San Fierro's Brand Street, the Las Venturas strip, a Vice City block, Mount Chiliad, and the BAWSAQ financial district with its tower and Exchange Row.
* **A fight.** Five health. A landed kick costs one. Five kicks and you are WASTED. Free players can scrap with free players any time.
* **An arena.** Every ten minutes a round opens. Buy in with 1,000 BAWSAQ from your own wallet, get one life, and fight for five minutes. Knock someone out and half their stake is yours. Survive and you get your stake back plus a share of the pot.
* **Your bags on your head.** Paste your wallet and your biggest BAWSAQ-listed coin floats above your character. Everyone can see what you hold.
* **Lore everywhere.** 24 story boards retell the San Andreas plot. Walk up to any of the 47 company logos for its dossier and live price.

## Where to next

Never played? Start with [Play in 60 seconds](/start-here/play-in-60-seconds.md). Ready to put money in? Read [How the round works](/the-arena/the-round.md) first, then [Enter the arena](/start-here/enter-the-arena.md). Something confusing? The [FAQ](/more/faq.md) is short.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.bawsaq.org/readme.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
