The crypto space is filled with endless opportunities and at the same time it can come with a lot of psychology breakdown when you start making some losses, in crypto volatility is constant and the markets direction can change at anytime but when properly studied the losses can be minimized. As a student I wouldn't advice you to go into crypto hodling or trading just yet, you can participate in mining airdrops which doesn't require any form of financial investment. Investing financially in crypto as s student isn't really a good idea in order for you not to disrupt your academics.
Mining or airdrops can waste extra time with a proportionally smaller return. If you don't get paid in proportion to the amount of work you put in, it's not fair. Yes mining or airdrops used to give a lot of profit even before some years but in recent times most of the airdrops cheat people and fail to give them their fair dues. Investment decisions as a student may not be good and he should learn freelancing or other demanding technical work along with his studies so that he can earn extra income while continuing his studies. Later when you are self-sufficient you can continue investing or depositing crypto on your own.
You should remember that true peace of mind exists in obtaining something with difficulty.
Currently there is really nothing better than mining and airdrops. At present comparatively little is obtained from them. Again in many cases the airdrops turn out to be fakes which do not pay. A student should not make any concessions in his studies, he can devote time to freelancing when his studies are done properly. Money is very necessary in a student life, so it would be great for a student if he can earn money by freelancing at the same time while keeping up with his studies. As a result, he can better continue his studies, but he must suffer for it. Earnings are not without hardships, also in this age technical knowledge is very necessary in every field, so along with studies one has to acquire technical skills and gain knowledge about satisfying subject so that he will not get stuck anywhere in future and also in student life he can earn money by freelancing.
