I'd love to see a cut in production, cap everything at 1 item per gather. Make gold 2-3 times as rare too. Game needs an economy and that's only going to happen if raw materials aren't handed out like candy. But I'm not convinced the current economy can be saved due to the amount of mats people are sitting on. Big changes need to be made to ensure the economy works going forward. All this gil needs removing too. Add some expensive mats that can only be obtained via NPC. Hopefully the devs will fix the economy after the battle changes.

Maybe if they increased the taxes for Market Wards? Something like 20% for out-of-proper-ward and 10% for in-ward?

That would just drive the economy to YG and shout/tell based. You can't penalise players with gil sinks, it has to be beneficial to spend your gil on that.

There needs to be more gilsinks though. Especially with all the gil sources. The main problem with the economy is how much gil there is.

Guildleves give waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much gil, especially for something that can be done 8 times every 36 hours.

Rank 30 and 40 leves just shouldn't give any gil at all. Have them all give marks. Let new players get some gil from the lower leves still. Have all local leves give marks, but lower the amount each leve gives to compensate.

Whoever designed the economy in this game had no idea what they're doing. There's dozens of players per server now with over 100mil gil and that will take a long time to be removed from the economy.
