I think there should be a valuable metal/resource for economy to be based on!
in real life there are valuable resources like Gold, Fuel, etc ... when their prices crash, world economy crashes too.
Back in Steel Blue, in the plat mess "as you say" there were some balance : "midbies and newbies sell their plat to advanced players, these players smelt it to make their own money" = Everybody is happy.
but now, everything is different, how do you expect newbies to make their money: no resource is worth mining and they are not good in crafting.
they will spend days doing quests to make just 5k tria! that will make them leave the game prematurely.
