# Rewards tokens for staking

The tokens staking rewards are paid in, sBTC, BTC or a provider's own token.

The "Rewards token" column on app.leather.io/staking shows what each option pays.

* **STX staking pools:** rewards accrue in sBTC. "sBTC / BTC" means the pool can also withdraw them to a Bitcoin address. Some pools pay native BTC off chain.
* **Liquid staking:** the provider sets how rewards reach you, usually through the value of its liquid token.
* **Bitcoin staking pools:** rewards accrue in sBTC, and the operator's contract decides whether you receive sBTC, BTC or a liquid token.
