    Cash by mail for getting in w/o a bank and giftcard services for groceries. I try when possible to seek out people who will take Monero on https://xmrbazaar.com and prioritize buying from them before resorting to a giftcard. My options for direct purchases are expanding slowly but surely. Having less than 1% inflation and falling helps too.

    Edit: Monero will never have over 1% inflation again

      Inflation on the crypto transaction charges, right?

        Base money supply actually. There are 18.4 million units as a soft cap and then from then on every two minutes point six new Monero exist. This is to replace those lost through loss of private keys, etc. But is low enough inflation to keep the supply from massively growing and losing value.
