# Validation

After GRAM tokens have been pooled in the smart contract, they are distributed between the participating validating nodes.&#x20;

Participating nodes engage in validation rounds to approve TON blockchain transactions and receive network rewards after each one.&#x20;

Once the reward is received, the application automatically deducts a service fee. The reward, excluding the fee, is added directly to the **bemo** GRAM tokens pool, increasing its GRAM value.

&#x20;As the value of the **bemo** GRAM pool grows, so does the GRAM price of bmGRAM, your share in this pool.
