The obvious answer is to invest in ETFs that hold bitcoin, in a traditional brokerage account. Ironic that it comes to that (given that bitcoin was supposed to take down big finance). But it is the most straightforward and safe way for someone to own some amount of bitcoin.

They will always have their funds living on a "live" computer, which you can extract secrets from using whatever side-channel you like. This way, you don't even have to torture them.
