Will the echo system be reworked?

I have this question: will the game creators change the echo system, so that it wouldn't be so difficult and time wasting to gain echoes? I gain 150 deep ambers with the painting that you can choose to create in the shuttered palace by choosing the most difficult challenge, which takes some time to finish (2 candles?). Can the exchange rate be modified, so that I won't spend 3000 deep amber for just 30 echoes?

I don't think they're planning on changing it any time soon. grinding echoes is just that, a grind. it takes time and resources.
Later on you will find better places to grind for it though. *as in an 1.60 echoes per action

You generally needn't worry about money until you're very far into the game (the Making your Name stories give nice payouts which should purchase most of the good Bazaar gear). And if you need specific items (like amber), you can get them with the Unfinished Business storylets available to any POSI. They're generally not the most efficient way to gain particular items, but not by a huge amount (even the most efficient storylet grinds won't be more than ~50% better than unfinished business).
If you feel the game is going slow for you, that's an unfortunate part of browser games and their monetization schemes. You can pay a bit of money for things to go a little faster or to get additional options. Otherwise you're pretty much stuck at the pace the game provides.

If you're in need of money, there's this on the wiki. It's more for high level players, but still kind of useful to show what the max epa is (about 1.6).
If you need deep amber for something, you can get quite a lot of it in mahogany hall doing stuff for Jasper and Frank, I think.

McGunn/Bsymstad is on the slow boat, waiting to see if he can find out what death is. (I'm done with London for now. Thanks for everything!)
Amanda Albright is a *spoiler* now, like she always wanted.
