I think it depend upon every individuals choice. Bitcoin mining requires high speed computers and efficient hardwares, equipments and a place. And it is also time consuming. And besides, bitcoin is definitely easier to buy than mine it. Whereas investing or trading in bitcoin is a bit risky as there are very high chances if losing the investment.

I do consider this a general discussion but if it needs to be moved, I apologize.

I was previously an alt coin miner for majority of the year. I had a decent sized operation yielding close to around 7-9 z-cash monthly. I sold my equipment merely because of electricity and truly believed with the right money in the right place, I could do fairly well in terms of gains..and I have so far. Nothing wild but, extremely fair.

Now my question is this, seeing this continuing rising bitcoin price.. exponentially rising btc price, ha. Would you consider it to be more or equally profitable to spend say, 10-15k on BTC mining equipment like A6 avalons or S7's and with a completely proper setup.. OR, research and diversify a strong portfolio with said 10-15k mentioned above.

WHERE do you all consider the gains are.

I consider the gains by choosing these "investing in btc". They are both profitable and have a extremely high risk but for me i prefer to choose investment, because in investement you didnt do anything, all you have to do is to wait the pump and gain profits while in mining you have to provide a very expensive mining equipment like A6 avalons or S7 to mine bitcoin or an altcoin, aside from that equipment, you have to pay your monthly electric bills including the high consume of that miner into your electric bill so where the gains in that? The very wise choice is to invest bitcoin rather than mining.

For an investment, I would advise you invest in altcoins( choose coins has the high level on coinmarketcap.com) or coin of ICO programs ( as IOTA). Trading is the best way you can get more profit if you have strong psychology and ability to find information well.
