VTC.

Look at a 24 hour graph on CoinedUp (it'll load in three hours). It'll dip soon on Cryptsy, but I'm guessing a bigger peak after that. I bought last night and tripled my BTC value. Not selling yet, I think VTC is bound for greatness.

I'd go $750 in BTC, $250 in LTC, $1,000 in VTC. Depends how risky you want to play it, though.

I have heard buying rather than mining is the way to go
But lots more knledgeable people on dis forum who can help

For sure, buy instead of mine. Even if you mine back the same USD over time, the Bitcoins themselves would likely be worth more. ie.

*You spend $2000 at $1000 per BTC, on a miner
*After it dies, you've mined back 1.2 BTC but they are now worth $10k each. You have $12k so you've earned 10k

Instead of this, though, you could have bought 2 BTC and you'd have $20k, or an increase of 18k.

Exactly.
If your mining profitability comes from the expected uprising bitcoin price, it would be better for you to just buy bitcoin directly.
Profit more, and work less. Smiley

And risk less... the more variables you bring into the picture (like hardware), the more risk you're adding.

It's much better to buy Btc. Any current mining gear really isn't a good investment.

Don't invest in bitcoin mining, you won't be able to have enough hashing powers. If you want invest in some Good GPU's and mine some other alt-coins. Buy Bitcoins if you want, next spike is in 4 months

Your best bet is investing in GPU. You can start mining scyrpt coins and exchange to btc.

Use this calculator to see if it's worth it.

http://mining.thegenesisblock.com

Also take into account how long it'll take to get to you and setting it up to mine.

I dumped $7k into building my rigs. I would've made more if I just bought $7k worth of coins. Plus my electricity bills are $3k per quarter. So yeah, I'd buy coins instead.

Hope that helps. =)

you gave no consideration for any real potential loss of btc

for example if the money was in Mt Gox, or BitInstant

not to mention if it was up it too high like those who invested in btc at anything over 900, the money is essentially trapped, that could eat away at you.
