Understanding Gas Costs in Bridge Transactions
When looking for gas optimization, Bridge transactions involve gas costs on multiple chains:
**Source Chain Gas**: Paid when initiating the bridge transaction **Destination Chain Gas**: Paid when claiming tokens (sometimes automatic) **Bridge Fees**: The bridge protocol's fee for the service
The total cost can vary dramatically based on network congestion, time of day, and the specific bridge used.
