What would granny-proof Bitcoin self-custody look like?

Something that can be used by a person with zero technical knowledge.

Pitch me your best concept. No need to rely on existing tech. Put as much imagination and sci-fi into it as you like!

My idea:

Piggy bank 🐷 and key fob 🔑.

Tap 🐷 with 🔑 on right ear to make a deposit. Tap on left ear to make a withdrawal. Duration of tap determines amount. LED display on piggy shows amount deposited/withdrawn.

It's the hold for X time to determine the amount that makes me go nuts. Ever tried to set a price using a slider on a website? You begin to beg for an input text box.

Agree. Maybe pre-set the amount per tap and tap as many times as necessary.
