Altcoins Mining, is it still profitable?

[okala]

I have been trying to read about Altcoins mining especially most of the new coins but I cannot come to the terms of investing in them. However, having been trading for quite along time I think buying and holding coins for long term is far  more profitable but highly risky. I have this view because I have not venture into mining! I will like you as a miner to recommend for me how one can make good profits through mining, What type of tools should I buy in other to mining Altcoins profitably, and were do I start?

Start with GPUs. Ati rx and vega series, nvidia 1060, 1070 & 1080. If you have some hardware knowledge, than you are good, if not Google some rig instructions. Coins such as Monero, zcoin, ella, etc .... possibilities are endless.
