Traveling internationally with a hardware wallet: what's been your experience with customs/immigration?

Hey everyone, curious to hear people's real-world experiences with this.

When traveling internationally, most countries require you to declare if you're carrying over $10k in cash or monetary instruments. Crypto creates a weird gray area for border control.

Technically, carrying a hardware wallet isn't carrying money across the border. The funds reside on the blockchain, not on the device. It's fundamentally no different than carrying a phone with a banking app or a bank token device.

That said, border control and immigration agents usually stick strictly to their playbook, and many might not understand or care about how the blockchain works if they inspect your bags.

For those who travel often with hardware wallets:

1. Have you ever been asked about your wallet by border agents?
2. How do you handle declarations or questions if custom officials bring it up?
3. What seems to be the broadly accepted or safest approach when crossing borders?

Would love to hear how you guys approach this in practice!
