I agree. This is because the mining of concurrency today has become more competitive. A lot of people now are mining cryptocurrencies both big and small. And most of these miners are also in the focus of Bitcoin because of it's value. I am no expert at mining but I think when it comes to Bitcoin, what is better now is just investing and trading. Especially now that the Bitcoin value is going up, it is good to invest and monitor it's prices from time to time. This increase may go a long way as more people are getting into Bitcoin investment nowadays.

Yes, that's right. It's good to invest now because Bitcoin price trend is upward. I've read a news a couple of days ago that the major force behind this might be the surge in the trading volume of the Japanese and South Korean Bitcoin exchange market to the exit of Bitcoin traders in China. Accordingly, they accounted for more than 50% market share of the global Bitcoin exchange market.

Huh. There they say that the good time has passed (Q1 2017). The good times were when all mined bitcoins on 7970. Now it's just a grow on hype.

Yeah, now we should invest more and more with every day to keep our mining process on a high level. But i think its worth of it, and if we want to receive some BTC we need to spend money on it.
and that is fair! we cant just generate BTC from air... if we could it would not cost so much

Gone are the good days of mining 10 USD with two Rx 480.  I have decided to sell them , instead of upgrading . I don't think enough money is pouring in again in this vast ocean of crypto
I think bitcoin mining business is not as easy as it is since 2012 till 2014. Gone are actually the days that miners get bitcoin easy and almost mining bitcoin like picking coins from ground. However,  mining others coins is still profitable and you can also mining those coins that split from bitcoin such as bitcoin gold and bitcoin Cash for profits. I have been trying to set up a mining farm but cost of electricity is too high in my country.

If the electricity cost is cheap then -YES but if not then its better to buy coins directly rather than on bothering yourself on mining because you are just really wasting up your time and effort to mine without seeing its profitability unless if you decide to hold up on the cons that you are holding.On this kind of case where GPU turns out not to be profitable then we can always resell those not on mining purposes but for gaming.Im sure there would be lots of people could possibly purchase those graphic cards and save up and plan to buy the latest one.

In this case, the current rise of bitcoin will only attract more people to participate in mining. Obviously, the more people involved, the more difficult the mining will be.

There must be something seriously wrong with your brain if you think that kind of ROI is sustainable. You can still make your money back on your gpu rigs within a year if you have cheap electricity. Even that is fkn retarded ROI. I am certain that it's going to fall even more.
