You can open a high yield savings account right now at over 4% APY, or a 12-24 month CD at over 5%. My point is your savings should not be losing value

In reality, inflation is much higher than the yield offered by deposits.

The real problem is that if (corrupt) humans are allowed the ability to print currency at zero cost, the result will always be the destruction of value. You can't conserve value, it always incites consumption....
