There are many avenues to earn in crypto. It requires knowledge and creativity to get through. There is more to the Blockchain technology than what we know today. It requires intelligence and creativity to come up with outstanding idea which will attract the interest of investors.
Always so many of them, with new ideas popping up each and every day, it is only then left for you as an individual to get creative, find a niche to build for yourself, make something and then see this space grow in that thing.
It does not necessarily have to be artwork, it could be any idea at all, and as long as you are able to create that idea into something that is going to be worth it, then, you will just see how easy it is for you to actually attain some pretty good height very fast. There will always be investors and there will be many more popping in the long run, it is just for you to bring up something good that would attract them like you said.
It is very cool when you have any talent. And it is desirable to develop it from childhood. Therefore, it all depends on your parents, how attentive they will be to you and whether they can find out in time what your talent is. And then they must guide you in the right direction and develop it. But again, it is not enough to have only talent, you need to figure out how and where to apply it correctly, like this guy in your picture.
Working with skill won't gives you any lose. I think earning money with skill is better than doing investing and tasking risk.
Skill is still part of being creative anyway as there is no way you can actually be able to get anything from your skills if you do not get creative at all. One way or the other, they are intertwined. However, we still have to realize that creativity is all about creating things, and for the fact that there are pretty few creators across the globes that can innovate and bring up something new, that is the reason why we have very few wealthy ones.
However, there is no way you can be creative without being skillful at what you are creating, but you can be skillful and not be creative, which is the reason why I said they are somehow intertwined.
