1. Is your idea logical? I would assume so. Explanation below.
2. Could it be done easily? Some of these ideas only require changing a sell price, others require quite a bit of work.
3. Has something like this been done before? Some of these used to be major parts of the server.
4. Has something like this been suggested before? No clue.
As there are currently few (effective) ways to rank up aside from: mining, donating, and crates, maybe there could be a few updates to the economy so that players aren't confined to the few methods of obtaining currency that many find boring.
While I expect most of my ideas to be overlooked for "obviously we can't do that because..." It would be beneficial to the server if there was more economic diversity, for obvious reasons.
Here are a few of my ideas:
1. Make fishing worthwhile. While I recognize that there is a fear of autofishers, there aren't any autofishers in existence that can outdo even the log mines with these sell prices. Seeing as it would take hours for any autofisher to yield the same profits as mining for only 15 minutes in the C mine (It took me about 15 minutes to earn 10k with a normal pickaxe after the mine reset), I don't understand why fish sell for almost nothing. It's pretty obvious who are using autofishers, anyway. You don't have to be a genius to realize that the guy stuck in the lobby spamming right click after the server restarts is probably doing it.
2. Revamp farming. The sell prices for wheat, apples, carrots, and potatoes are so insignificant that all of my crops are going straight into some villager's pocket so I can get emeralds for a much higher profit. There's not even a place to sell sugarcane, cocoa, or cacti.
3. Bring back smuggler? Although drugs were never a huge part of the economy, there's currently nowhere to sell them.
4. Make a dye shop. Squid Sacks, flowers, and lapis, etc. Would add another way for players to obtain money. Plus, a lot of players need dye for their plots. Insert generic "I want players to have the experience of finding all of that in the wild argument."
5. Mob drops sell for nothing. It's more worthwhile to sell mob drops for emeralds from villagers. It seems pretty much everything can be traded to villagers for a much higher profit.
I know revamping the economy is likely to be a pain in the ass, but it would be nice if there were other ways to get moneys.

Just do it.
