I think there are two factors really.
1) can you mine it profitably?
2) do you think it has a positive trajectory? in which case, you can mine it for no profit.
Personally I think mining for a loss assuming something will go up is silly. You are just better off buying some with fiat at face value.
All that said, check out Monero, I think you can still mine with GPU and make some $$. Possibly even CPU.
