Trying to avoid inflation or preserve value is something you choose carefully. You can chose government bond and then war happens, you will get delay in payment but there is assurance especially if it's coming from the government but what happen when inflation has exceed the interest rate you are getting in return. If you consider Bitcoin too for example, you can invest this year and bear market will make you lose value of your money, you have to wait for another bull run which can take another 2-3 years before your value will appreciate and if you bought at the top, you are soup because you will probably make nothing much to beat inflation.
Under favorable condition, I will choose atleast two from crypto and then chose from non crypto and then divide my investment into them just to be safer and if should incase one is not ready to be spend for that moment or incase of emergency situations where money will be needed as quick as possible, nobody knows tomorrow no matter how careful you are with your investment.
That's why it's important to diversify your investment. A little over here, and a little over there will help you minimize risks of loss as much as possible. I think the best strategy is to invest half of your money into Bitcoin and Gold. The former is highly-volatitle, while the latter is much more stable in market price. You can leverage between both assets to help beat inflation.
I'm afraid things will continue to get worse, until the conflicts between Israel-Hamas and Russia-Ukraine comes to an end. Once global stability is reached, the economy will recover. At least, that's what we hope for. Who knows what lies ahead in the future?
