Dollar devaluation has me rethinking my emergency fund

I’ve always kept most of my savings in cash because I like liquidity, but with the dollar slowly losing value, I’m starting to worry. I don’t want to make a panic move, but sitting still feels risky too.

How have others adjusted their savings when the dollar started dropping? Are there ways to protect the value without going all-in on something risky? I’ve heard certain assets can really hold up when cash loses ground.
