I'm mining nexus (NXS) at the moment. Relatively new sha3 altcoin with lots of potential and an active and open community. The coin could definitely rise the coming time and is easily minable in cpu pools. You can also just buy it as it is still cheap.
They have interesting new technologies  (and new ones planned for the future, like an internet independent cube sat space program.).

Have you found any calculators or results in any research? I thought of testing with some VPS, because NXS being in the beginning might be a good idea. What do you think?

I'm using the miner that is provided on the main nexusearth site.

I'm not quite sure I understand what you mean. If you have more questions you should join the nexus slack. There is always someone to answer your question.
I think NXS is very much undervalued atm.

If you do not have free electricity, I think mining is unprofitable on CPU, will be a big electric bill. Maybe you have one or two video card?

Only shit coins are mineable with cpu's these days and I wouldn't waste my computer's resources on them. If you're serious about mining then you should get yourself some GPU's for Altcoins and ASIC antminer if you want to mine bitcoins. There are prearranged miners on the market too likevpanda miner which comes with everything already setup in the box ready to mine.

You should try NiceHash miner. It doesn't mine altcoins for you directly, but you are "selling" your hashing power via their app and you get paid in bitcoins.
It really depends what CPU you have, you can gain few thousands satoshi per day, but I think it's still better than faucets etc.
If you want get into the mining world I think it's good place where to start. ;-)

not agree with that, bitcoin started by cpu mining, and the increasing difficulty have made descentralization/centralization a problem and turned mining just available for a minority
