Hi. I am also new to alt coins but i sarted now with graincoin and in a few hours i was able to mine more than 200,coins with just a few khash/s rate. I think it is pretty good and i am thinking now to mine only new alt coins while the difficulty is not too high. Do you think is a good ideea to try promissing new alt coins for mining with the hope that it may get some value later?
99 out of 100 will fail so 99% of your time you 'll be mining something worthless. The 1% that you 'll mine something that will find its way to the spotlight will most probaby not give you much in return. No more than mining a coin that it is already established anyway.
Thanks for letting me know this awful succes rate of the alt-coins. pretty bad i think...
