Worth buying Bitfuty chips? Also can Butterfly labs mine alt coins

[bossramsay15]

I know about Altcoins a bit, some ran on scrypts, and some ran on that sha-256

Im thinking about buying a little USB mining stick ~ 333mh/s, or maybe, Buy a butteflylabs asic miner, of ebay like a 5gh/s one, But only if they can mine Altcoins, not only bitcoins need help thanks !

I'd recommend doing tons more reading of forum before making a decision to buy. Ultimately it is up to. Generally it is considered that mining now is a risky proposition if you are trying to turn a profit, no matter which chip you go with, because of always sky-rocketing difficulty.

The sticks can not mine scrypt coins, only btc and other sha-256 coins like ppc and a few others.

There are no asics for scrypt currently. So mine scrypt coins with video cards mostly.

You probably won't end up making a profit with anything from butterfly labs or the usb miners...

Well FYI, you should mine litecoin for GPU to increase your profitability by 10x...
