In fact, validators provide the basis for the functioning of a decentralized network. For their work, they receive remuneration consisting of a processing fee (1,7 EVER for a new block in the masterchain, 1 EVER for a new block in the shardchain), as well as from the emission of new tokens distributed to validators. In the current network parameters, the emission is fixed at the level of ~0.5% per year. It is distributed each validation cycle to all validators in proportion to their stakes.
