If you want a dedicated bitcoin machine I would suggest it not be the the one you take on trips!

Honestly this is a bit of personal preference so don't take a random persons advice here without doing your own research, but please do consider setting up your bitcoin machine as a dedicated device.

Cheapest way to go is slapping your favorite linix distro onto an old laptop.

If you have a larger budget consider things like

If your paranoid get into Qubes OS.

If you have $ and don't want to deal with hardware comparability https://shop.nitrokey.com/shop/product/nitropad-t430-119

But the only "right" answer is what you are most comfortable with, if its windows or apple that's fine, just learn to get rid of all the bloat ware and get into some privacy best practice's.

But please do not transit airports with the laptop you primarily use for bitcoin if at all possible.

Airports should only be used with burners (phones and laptop) if at all possible.

Thanks!

I do have a couple of dedicated machines running Core and Sparrow, so this one is more of a "throw away" laptop. Should have been more specific. Wouldn't load anything BTC before the traveling.
