well, being early to a coin ain't hard but knowing when to sell IS, i started to mine dogecoin a few hours after launch and totally i got 2.5mil doge with my lausy gtx580.
sounds good right? would have been if i wouldn't have sold them at 85 satoshi each...
secondly, i would guess about 95% of all new coin today won't make it past 6 months.
So you made 2BTC but you could have made more than 100BTC by selling today
It is the same with a lot of early Bitcoin adopters, they sold use or lost their coins
What coin are you mining/buying now? You got right once, maybe you will be right twice
At the moment i'm mining GPUcoin, i'm speculating it will be worth atleast something and it's really the only way i can use my gpu to gain some coins.
But i'm also buying doge, because i think they are at the moment very cheap
PS, with overclock i get about 300khash with my GTX580
