Auction houses, once considered bastions of conservatism, are actively entering the digital age. Today, participating in auctions no longer requires a physical presence in the room. Thanks to mobile apps and online platforms, one can bid on art, antiques, or collectible cars from anywhere in the world with just a smartphone.
