If that scratches your itch, take a look at Boundless (playboundless.com). Though it's still pretty early, and the player base is tiny, the economy is pretty interesting
Really neat game that I wouldn’t have considered because of its weak original branding (Oort Online ring a bell?)...
Just beware everything gets wiped on the 1.0 release.
Also, it will not be wiped as in deleted forever, devs are pondering ideas about making those [archived] planets public or including builds in some way into new planets.
If anyone is interested in Boundless economy, it's a budding one. For serious traders this should be a prime time to start.
