It would be interesting to see how a complete planetary financial/economic system would look like that was built on top of the blockchain: http://marscoin.org
An early Mars colony would probably resemble organizationally a family/village but as soon as you get distinct locations that produce various raw materials and are run by different communities you'd probably have to fall back to facilitate free trading. It would be interesting to observe if the growing planetary GDP tied to a deflationary cryptocurreny would lead to similar boom and bust cycles as the 1870-1920s.
On a planet that's close to the Asteroid belt with its resources that might lead to fascinating trading opportunities :-)
