Altcoins, definitely. Anything without ASICs involved.

I only mine/buy/use bitcoins. I'm in the bitcoin game because I like bitcoins. Altcoins such as litecoins and dogecoins have their value but I just have no interest in them. Mining is an adventure and a game for me rather than purely for profit and the idea of mining altcoins just do not appeal to me. I see bitcoins as gold and litecoins as silver. all other altcoins are similar to copper, tin, and etc. they all will be worth something but there is only one type of gold, bitcoins. future historians will see this era as the second gold rush.

Mining bitcoin is not profitable currently.
Litecoin (LTC) is the heavy hitter in the alts and could be considered Bitcoins' accessory. It's still profitable to mine LTC.

You can also try mining coins which are not yet on any exchange, just don't stick with a single one, their difficulty is low, but only a few make it, however when they do their price explodes so you can get a lot of money for your mining time.

If you want to profit, you should mine scrypt coins.

Hello I am mining mintcoins right now!
You wil get alot of coins even if you have a bad videocard!
And the prices will go up soon.
A good alternative would be Dogecoins.
The block rewards will halve soon and that will drive the price up.
I also heard noblecoin is a good investment.

32MB "card" won't be able to mine - no OpenCL or Cuda support. Never mine on a laptop, not worth it. |
