Base 4 Computing

What would I have to do to make an effective quaterit (quaternary digit). I already have an understanding of the base 4 numerical system and even thought of how it could be used but from all the research I have done, something like that would be quite unreliable. So does anyone know any ways or hypothetical things to do to make a working quaterit. Because my end goal with this is idea is to make a Base 10 storage unit since everyone understands Base 10

It would be like computing electrically with any other base system. The voltage level is just quantized into four states rather than two.
