Hi! I want to start to mine crypto-currency. I read a lot on Internet and I want to try. My question is: is it still good to mine with an USB ASIC? Are there other crypto-currency to mine with ASIC? My dream is Cointerra  Grin but they're very expensive.

Some altcoins are only CPU coin. You can find any profitable coin to mine and make profit with any hardware you have.

Cubes seem ok

but at 1BTC it is a lot to start with.

just to start out try CEX.io 
you can buy very small amounts

 I started mining last week and I am thinking to buy a ASIC, but the difficulty is still increasing so this is a little bit risked.

Actually you can mine a number of different currencies that use SHA-256 algos.

IMO, Peercoin (PPC) is next best bet Smiley
