its been 8 years now, I guess off the top of my head:

groceries, domain names, registered agent services, compute instances, graphic design, press releases

Any reading you could recommend on Monero? Beyond wiki, subreddit, etc. Looking for more of an economics angle than cryptography angle, without generic crypto hype.
I have no insightful information to give you with regards to Monero, but to me what you're looking for is a good fit for Marginalia's text-centric search engine [0]. I get interesting results when I'm looking for authentic and elaborate opinions on given subjects outside the beaten path, which seems to be your goal. And especially useful when trying to flee the cesspool of results Google gives you when looking for topics with heavily financial undertones - good effing luck getting to a genuine article speaking of cryptocurrencies, stocks or any topic with financial incentives.

Thanks, this surfaced several interesting looking results. I'll try using it more often.
Thanks, saved both of those.
Not sure, one key aspect of the economics side in that community is “tail emission”

So looking up

Monero tail emission

might help, but I don't think there is more formal literate that just focuses on that, maybe some enthusiasts in university have something on SSRN
