Do I need to hold SOL in my destination wallet to receive the tokens?

No, you don't! The LayerZero bridge is designed to make this seamless.

When you initiate the bridge transfer from the Chiliz Chain, the bridge automatically checks if your Solana wallet already has the required Associated Token Account. If it doesn't, LayerZero simply converts a small portion of your upfront gas fee to cover the Solana "rent" cost. The account is created automatically on the destination side, and your tokens arrive safely—all in one click.
