Marinade Recipes (Customized Rewards) pay your staking rewards in a token of your choice. For some assets you receive a tokenized version rather than the native asset, so this page lists what actually lands in your wallet and who issues it.
You pick your reward token when you stake, and you can change it at any time without unstaking. See How to Change Which Token My Rewards Are Paid In.

Good to Know
Every payout token arrives as a standard SPL token in your Solana wallet, so you can hold, send, trade, or use it in any protocol that supports it.
These tokens are issued by third parties, not by Marinade. Each carries its issuer's own trust model, and some can be paused or frozen by the issuer, which would pause reward delivery in that token until the pause is lifted. If that happens, switch your reward token and payouts resume in the new token. None of this affects your SOL principal, which is never held in the payout token.
Some tokens carry issuer restrictions. Tokenized equities such as SPYx and NVDAx are generally available only to non-U.S. persons.
Your wallet needs an open token account for whichever token you pick, or payouts pause.
For reserve, regulation, and redemption details, always refer to the issuer directly, for example Paxos / Global Dollar Network for USDG.
