The only sure way to get merit is being active and contributing smartly to activities in the forum.

There is no "sure" way for anything. Merit is awarded for posts that are worth reading knowledgeable and informative. If you are posting here in order to get attention of some merit source then you can be sure that your posts will be ignored.

Yes maybe merits are good tools to increase your level and with higher level you can achieve more with bounties and stuff, but I think the whole point should not be getting merits and increasing your level, where in the same time you can learn more than everything with the elements that are available here, so know how to find them read them and learn from them

Correct, Merit is not a "tool" to rank up. It is a system for awarding posts and thus bringing some recognition to the posters in between the flood of shitposts - a post that might be worth reading in the entire noise spectrum.

I'm very new to this community and would like to know more about the technology behind cryptocurrency, but it seems I will going to have a hard time ranking up, but I'm going to treat it as a challenge more than a task,

You can also gather knowledge from reading the threads - but dont get too caught up in the shill posted ANN threads.

I respect the management decision to place merit as one of the requirements to rank, it's a sure way for newbies that they are not going to spam this forum.

Oh newbies are doing everything they can in order to squeeze merit from people from outright begging to direct threatening. Dont worry they are all being exterminated as we speak.
