Not sure if it is the good place to ask that but if I have just one Radeon 7970 Graphics Card, should I mine LTC or BTC considering that Bitcoin difficulty is way higher.

Thanks

I usually go to Coinotron.com and watch the profitability table at the top of their home page and switch to the most profitable cryptocoin. Right now it's LTC (37%) and FTC (44%) better profit compare to BTC.

Found a site once which showed what coins were worth mining. Don't remember the URL but I remember LTC being more viable than BTC because BTC is more difficult these days.

I would say Litecoin, as Bitcoin difficulty will keep increasing as more ASICs come online.  GPU mining is going the same way as CPU mining with Bitcoin.

But ASIC will also be used to mine Litecoin, so not a safe guard either, am I wrong ?

Scrypt is more ASIC un-friendly for now so it wont be a problem in the near future.

Isn't that kind of like biting the hand that feeds you?  If LTC is becoming the only alternative for GPU miners, shouldn't they be thinking long term and retaining the Litecoin instead of just making ASIC mining that much more profitable?

I agree. If people keep converting Litecoins to Bitcoins they will simply fall in value and become another alt coin for the count.
