Oppose at peterparker9191 said, mining is still profitable if your onto alts and new coins in the market and don't just focus into coins which obviously has high difficulty and less profitability.

I always mine ethereum. Its always giving me best profit.
I tried to mine zec and xmr but i always get more on ethereum mining.
I have 1080ti.

For me best altcoin mine is ethereum becuase ethereum is a welknown coin and ethereum is have potencial to fly a price.

If you are only mining Altcoins then A high GPU desktop PC can be OK, if you are only mining for Altcoins that only have a value under $1 USD that is the commonly thing miners do if they want to mine for Cryptocurrency and they only have cheap investment for their mining equipment, There are also Mobile applications that let's you mine Altcoins using only your phones, And one of the Altcoins that I know have a wallet application that let's you mine for their Coin and that is Electroneum, Well it is up to you if you want to try it.

There is no absolute best. It should be skipped from currency to currency in abase with the staking and market trend

I would recommend ELECTRONEUM. It would be massive gains because of so called mass addoption. This time you can mine ETN through mobile app and its the key to people would addopt and know about cryptocurrency. ETN has a strong community and active developers. It was not listed yet at big exchanges i bet that when its listed on binance , bittrex, or poloniex it would hit 50$. On feb 14 it would be listed on nextexchange and feb 26 on hitbtc.

if I think now is a good time to invest in altcoin because again cheap and known there will be a big pump that will affect the market price of cryptocurrency.

especially nowadays like XRP, ETH is booming big investors, and big banks have started to support them moreover ETH platform is widely used for new tokens.

and the NEO is also very good he almost offset ETH for various platforms and communities that support it.

and it's in my opinion about his good time altcoin to buy and hold

I am sure the best altcoin that you can mine ever is Zcash. The coin that takes the second place (in my opinion) after Ethereum. I am also sure that Monero is a very-well mine cryptocurrency. IMHO.

In alot of places now it's not very profitable. But electoneum is working on a mobile miner.. but I have no idea how that would work ot if it would just ruin your phone

im convinced it is ethereum :D

I would always keep ETH as my backup switching back to it as needed, however you are asking a question that has no good answer. Reason being difficulty levels change very fast. You need to do your research constantly and keep switching from coin to coin in order to maximize profit.

LItecoin is one of the lightest coin for mining. Also its advantage is that taxes and fees for transactions are very small.

its best to mine a altcoin with good roadmap (if you mine new coins this also means higher price in the future if you decide to hodl) also having the coin low difficulty also means you generate blocks faster it depends on you which coin you should mine i prefer the ones who have low difficulty and have a good roadmap.

Per own research, one of the best altcoin for mining as recommended is Monero coin wherein it stands out among other cryptocurrencies as it is generally considered as the most advanced anonymous digital currency. To start mining Monero coin with your CPU, all you need to do is download Monero mining software, install it, and you are ready to start. Working only your computer’s processing power, you can create new Monero coins. Moreover, If you wish to increase your earnings, you may acquire graphic cards that will increase your computing power to mine more Monero coins.

The most known altcoins for mining is Ethereum as it was the most active transaction activities in the blockchain of altcoin in which not only the Ethereum holders are doing withdraw and deposit transactions but also the ICO participants in which they required gas to be use as payments for every transactions and this gas was made thru Ethereum so therefore better to choose Ethereum for your mining interest.

Dude, its a good idea to have more miners in the industry since most of the problems right now like network congestion and high fees can be solve. There are many ways to get electricity at much lower cost like solar panels. I also looking forward to the companies like samsung that will make hardware just for mining purposes.

I also suggest ethereum to OP because most of the new token is ethereum based. The fee is minimal if you also planning to invest in ICO.

I am sure the best altcoin that you can mine ever is Zcash. The coin that takes the second place after Ethereum. I am also sure that Monero is a very-well mine cryptocurrency.  :)   

I think the best altcoin to mine is Ethereum and Ripple because they are more stable than other crypto currency . They already rises for Ethereum almost 6% and Ripple almost 10%.This shows that they are best for mining nowadays . Unlike Ethereum and Ripple you need to take into account that some coins and altcoins are just junk and won’t be worth the time you spent on mining them.

Nice Guy! Let's hope you never have to ask another human being a question about something you want to learn.
YOU: "Excuse me sir, can you tell me the quickest way to the train station?"
PASSING STRANGER: "Fuck off you lazy tight bastard, go buy a map!"

TIS CALLED KARMA

The best altcoin for me personally is Ripple. Because Ripple is an international payment system that provides a quick transfer of funds to anywhere in the world and works on a trustless platform. The consensus register, which is used in Ripple for confirmation, does not need to be mined, which distinguishes the project from others.

Specify your question: With what kind of hardware do you want to mine and what for do you want to mine? With weak hardware/little hash you could try out BCN. It is still easy to mine and has good potential to grow.

Mining is good but nowadays it is less profitable
as a newbie i would implore you focus more on bounties and concentrate on airdrops
cheap mining will fetch you 2 usd in probably 6 months of hard work.
just concentrate on bounties and airdrops

invest in icos, and make a fortune of wealth

Altcoin best to have can we see through price, development, and enthusiasts. if we can monitor these three aspects. then we will know the state of the real coin and whether the coin is good or not. I chose Ethereum as the best Altcoin to have.

as i know, ripple can not be mined.. some people above said ripple ??

and also i agree ETH is interested, because we can use VGA.. for me it's best suit .. it can replaced one by one and also upgradeable

i'm looking and learnong for siacoin rigt now...

website? i use this https://whattomine.com/

probably the best altcoin for me is Ethereum because Ethereum has a good growth and can be profitable in the future and with so many people investing in altcoin who have a good future and survive for the future

Mine something that has very low difficulty and pray that the coin moons.  Unless you have a mining farm, this method is the best way to make decent money from mining.  You won't be able to compete with others if your rig puts out low hashrate while mining high cap cryptos. 

The best altcoins for me to mine is ethereum and neo. Their popularity grows widely and many people invest those coins including me because we believe at ethereum and neo that has capabilities and potential to rise high in the future. Sooner neo will stands next at ethereum, they both have good technologies that makes them more famous.

Mining coins costs a fortune if you want it to be profitable. It is very much hectic with all the procedures you need to do before you can earn a dime. Better stick with investments.

altcoin that has little value has a great potential to be mined. If finding it easy then litecoin is also a great potential to be mined. However, the influence of the GPU will also affect mining.

If you want to try your and in mining i suggest SIBCoin. Right now its on low value and if u actually mine something it could bring some money to your wallet. Im not saying go all in and do your research if you are going to actually try.

No doubt that ETH still the best altcoin to mine. In terms of stability, sustanability and profitability ETH has it all that is why it is the no.1 altcoin in the market. You only have to visit in your local computer retail store in order to purchase GPU or Video cards for mining. You will be needing a huge budget for that mining rig in order to earn decent coins in the market. You may want to try to purchase in Amazon or Aliexpress for your mining rig but I really suggest you need to have a good supplier for safety purposes of your mining rig because its so expensive.

best altcoin to mine now ? i think XMR monero.
with a high spec of mining tools, you can earn much profit than mine ethereum.
just keep in mind that if you mining in a dip market, you wont get much fiat if you sell it.

In alot of places now it's not very profitable. But electoneum is working on a mobile miner.. but I have no idea how that would work ot if it would just ruin your phone , if I think now is a good time to invest in altcoin because again cheap and known there will be a big pump that will affect the market price of cryptocurrency.

I think the best thing to be mined is Zcash because I think it is a successful coin. Just look at him ranked 24 now at CoinMarketCap

Logically the best altcoin to mine is the one with the least circulation supply available but this does not mean that you take could with the least coins in the market because its possible that that coin is irrelevant and of no use

Many do not want to take life into their own hands . that's why they ask for advice . so in case of failure to blame the others, do self-analysis

Unless you have lots of free electricity I wouldn't bother mining coins if I were you

I am still convinced of ethereum and NEO because both of them give me an advantage. So I still hold the two coins.

At present many people invest a lot of money in mining equipment. But the effect is not high. Instead of investing in equipment, I would like to invest money in ico or hunt for bonuses. That is my personal opinion.
