Do I need gas on Celo before I can bridge from Optimism?

You need the native gas token on Optimism to send the bridge transaction. On the Celo side you do not need to pre-fund gas to receive your assets — they arrive without you signing anything. You will need a small amount of Celo gas later, once you want to swap or move those assets onward, and the simplest way to get it is to bridge a little of the native Celo token in the same session so you land with both the asset and the gas to use it.
