Yes. You can earn money from Steemmonsters.
The first, and most common way is through trading Steem Monster Cards. This could prove very lucrative, especially if you find some rare and in demand cards. These are usually the Gold Foils, which have been sold for $USD3.00 for Common Gold Foils up to a record $USD1200.00 to $USD1900.00 for Legendary Gold Foils. Regular Legendary Cards, on the other hand, are also selling for a few bucks, between $USD6 to $USD12.
Of course, despite these lucrative numbers, keep in mind that you might have to open several booster packs to get the Gold Foils. And considering that a booster pack with 5 cards costs $2.00 each, you will need to invest money, before you start making some if you're coming in purely for the trade.
Another way to earn is by joining and winning the official tournaments. These haven't started yet, but word is there are big prizes at stake for participants. You will have to build a good team and learn how to play, though.
Hope this helps.
