Lending is one way to increase your source of profit, it takes a lot of capital before you'd start earning a decent amount. You can check the forum's
lending section to get an idea of the situation. It's not the best option but it's better to have alternatives than sticking to one or two options.
lending is a good business but currently the competition is very tight while the OP is a newbie so there will definitely be a lot of cheats, hopefully the OP can be patient and grow his account first so he can join a signature campaign that pays btc or other tokens..
Signature campaigns is indeed a good one but not all would able to level or rank up their account so fast unlike that pre-merit system which it is really that easy but now its hard unless if you are
really that a good poster which could earn merits fast.
Starting up crypto whether on means on being an investor or doing those tasks which could potentially earn you crypto with those jobs but this one do really
still requires effort.
Even though it is not easy to rank up easily if you're a newbie but there are many examples of people who got a lot of merits in very short period of time and therefore rank up quickly. For this you need to be a very good poster and also that's require some special hard work.
Money earn from signature campaigns / bounties may not be much, but could be a good starting point for anyone who has nothing to invest in crypto.
Best for newbies if they are dedicated here and want to excel here better they should study first how cryptocurrencies work and other things related unto it so that they can follow and communicate with other forum users and can answer accurately what other people talk about in the thread as well they can share their knowledge to the other newbie and help them solve their little problems.
