There are some really easy ways to protect yourself. Most of these ideas are generally good for periods of high inflation. REAL hyperinflation is so disruptive that nothing is really safe.

I-bonds for small-time investors in the US. They have some nice tax benefits for holders. TIPS for big-time investors.

Global stock index funds. That saves you the trouble of buying and holding foreign currency and they pay dividends while you wait for the inflation apocalypse. Even domestic stocks have a good chance of coming out ahead.

Others have mentioned gold and silver. Those can be bought like stocks with GLD and SLV. Likewise you can buy real estate investment trusts if you aren't in a position to buy actual real estate. Those usually pay nice dividends.

If you're really worried about real hyperinflation, you should go find the best deal on bulk-purchases of every non-perishable thing you intend to use for the next year. You might be surprised at the investment return you get on buying a 5-year's supply of wine or t-shirts.
