With 10 hours left in the current parachain lease auction, Alpha Network has been in the lead the vast majority of the Ending Period. https://parachains.info/auctions/kusama
However, both Karura and Basilisk have been in the lead during the Ending Period, so according to the rules of the candle auction, both have a possibility of winning. https://wiki.polkadot.network/docs/learn-auction#mechanics-of-a-candle-auction
