what can i do to make sure, that after my death my loved ones can inherit my bitcoin?
and only after my death and not before. so giving them my privatkey now is not an option.

I haven't thought about this situation but I would probably write down the account details for the web wallet, the 2FA how it works and how to use it, the hardware wallet how to a video in my HDD or hosted on google drive, and if it is a paper wallet just the private key. If they could not know even after this explanation I would suggest them to ask a friend or someone who knows to use bitcoin.

I do not want to give them to many instructions on how to use the bitcoin or my private key. if they can not figure this out on their own, then they do not deserve the bitcoin.
also i am not using a web wallet for this.

You can set up a server that requires an email sent to it every month before it will email your family members with instructions and the private key.
Possibly could make it a smart contract maybe?

Pity that you don't like my previously suggestions)
You can make easy. Right down an e-mail with everything and put timer 1 week (1 month .etc) on it. And if you are dont die in this 1 week (......) you just put a new date of sending.

the safe and key necklace is one of the better choices but i prefer e-mail or smart contract one so far.
the problem i see with a will and the attorney as a trusty is that i still want to use the bitcoins and so my private key changes from time to time and i would need to adjust my will.
no attorney will want to change it almost daily for free and i will not pay for every change.

I only know of USA law:
1st you create a will (attorney's hold that will until you die, your will will be filed in Probate Court as well (unless you do it privately then the court portion doesn't apply) if atty is no longer in business or living, then whomever they appoint to guard their papers will have your will until you die.

You do not need to list the private keys in your will, only you wish to leave XXXX with your Bitcoins XXXX. As for changing your private keys from time to time-those should be stored from time to time by you (to easily be found in the event of your death) these do not have to be updated constantly on a will.

If you think someone is going to go into your personal paper files at home, looking for your BTC keys, then you should reconsider the company you keep Undecided
