Inflation means holding cash actually devalues it. Assets are better protection mechanisms. Real estate, precious metals, crypto maybe, fine art, etc .

Assets are not a good protection mechanism if you buy them at the height of a bubble in asset prices!
Inflation is very low at the moment and there are benefits to having at least some cash on hand.
