Is becoming a digital nomad too competitive to get into right now, are there still many opportunities out there?

Absolutely not!

These days it's easier than ever to start living the digital nomad lifestyle, because tons of companies hire people to work remotely, there are a lot of freelance work you could be doing and most online businesses you'll start can easily be managed remotely.
