Can anyone tell me the best profitable alt coin for mining
and what mining machine is best for that alt-coin.

I think the best profitable Altcoins are those that are ranked based on price, popularity as well as the demand which can be searched easily through world wide web. Among those cryptocurrencies (Altcoins) that are ranked, we can see that Ethereum is still making its way into the top spot since aside from the dependency from Bitcoin, most Altcoins also rely into the price of Ethereum as well which makes it another option for trading pairs. I think with that stand, Ethereum is relevant to be proclaimed as the best profitable Altcoin for mining. Though everyone on the ranking can also be profitable as well. Now, choosing the most profitable Altcoin will now vary depending on the point of view of every miner and trader but for me, I find Ethereum as the best profitable Altcoin.

Eth have higher price and get little reward for mining and I think choose with altcoin have lower price but can receive higher reward for every mining transaction day, looking with ethereum maybe we need five months later to get profit with our mining tools but for other coin have lower price become faster to get profit and get back our money have buying mining tools.

ETH is one of the more stable altcoins out there and that is why a lot of miners prefer that coin despite low returns. You can opt for lesser known cryptocurrencies such as Zcash or Vertcoin, but these coins are highly volatile and there is a real chance that by the time you receive the mining reward, the exchange rate may be much lower than the current rates. PoS coins represent another option, but these coins are even more volatile.

Of course, you should mine ETH. This is the most profitable altcoin when you mine, and its difficulty is not too high, so you do not need to spend a lot of money on your equipment. In addition, ETC is also a good choice for mining, I used to mine ETH and ETC before but after a while I stopped this work because the electricity cost in my country is too high without too much profit for me and do not forget to invest in BTC and these altcoins because it will help you get double the profit in the future.

The best profitable altcoin to mine presently is ETH as https://whattomine.com says, followed by haven protocol which is a cryptonight based algorithm coin, to mine both you will need powerful sets of graphics cards like new RTX from Nvidia and RX Vega from AMD, they are very good and active

There are several factors that needs to be considered before you plan to mine a particular altcoin. Apart from the mining reward, you need to calculate the future prices as well. Almost all of the alts have lost value during the past 4-5 months (in the range of 60% to 80%), and you need to take this in to account during ROI calculations, before making plans for mining.

Top altcoins like ETH or ETC has high mining difficulties, the profits will be very low unless you have gigantic mining farm, for those who use a rig or two it's better to find new born altcoins and quickly fill your bags, once they get listed then sell

my advice will be very simple for you: you don’t need to start mining altcoins on any equipment now. The return periods of your equipment will be huge. the best thing now is to just invest this money in those altcoins that you would like to start mining. this way you will see net profit faster than if you will use mining
do not forget to learn how to invest first, because without knowing the ways, he will be able to get caught up in the investment being carried out. we must learn more before investing and in mining we must understand the mining algorithm

You can try ETH, Yes because some of us do that and also monero, even though the market is declining, you can still get a decent profit between it. Of course you also cannot expect high prices if you want to mine there, for us what is provided by ETH and Monero is enough, because your own satisfaction determines it

Thank you for this information. Its always a difficult task deciding on which altcoin to mine considering the nature of the market and the requirements for mining an altcoin. I vehemently believe that mining could be lucrative, if one has the right information and is able to mine the right combination of cryptocurrency.

Please move this thread to the correct board Mining (Altcoin)

At there you may find the expected answer from the miner altcoin. And also you can read some threads first because there is some information that related to your answer such as this thread https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/is-mortgage-mining-a-good-choice-5211853

Is it necessary to move the topic there? Though the question is simply about which altcoin is good for mining is just a simple inquiry? I think topics on mining section is very more detailed and this kind of post will be rejected by mods there.

But to answer OP every altcoins out there is still profitable and you can take advantage of it if youre consumption on electricity is quite low. Like ether still good to mine, just provide a good specs of GPU.

ether was once the most profitable coin for mining but we can't say it is the most profitable one right now.
Only the people who have a good set of GPUs have a good hashrate to mine ether. It is not suitable for all to mine ether.
Other altcoins are available to mine as well but will be a little risky since the current market is not in a bullish trend.
is not in a market condition like now can make us profitable if the market conditions will experience a pump. I am not a bitcoin or altcoin miner. but if you look at what happened to bitcoin a few years ago, don't they who mine bitcoin when the price is cheap and then experience a market peak in 2017 they are saving for the long term.

I think mining is not affected by the laws of the country, no country actually bans mining. But the cost of mining in each country is different because the price of electricity and mining cost are different. I still prefer mining because it helps us to have a more stable income than trading and margin
As long as you can maintain the hardware and pay off the electricity bills then mining is profitable but with increasing difficult i am not sure if any of the coins are profitable and now if the OP is planning to invest in mining then it will not be a smart move as ETH is also changing their protocol to proof of Stakes (POS) and hence that is also gone and other than that what other coins can be profitable in the market right now.

@OP the budget is the main thing, if you are planning to invest millions then bitcoin mining farm is always the best option with the latest ASIC.

The diff is already high right now. if you just use low computation, you just wasting your money
Mining is costly, you can do mining with low price but you can't get good profit.
back to your question, choose ETH and use GPUs.
Even though the price of ethereum is down, there are still many who believe in it, so that altcoin is worth investing in, moreover ethereum remains firm in the second position on coin.marketcap. choosing altcoin can bring in bigger profits, but it has a big risk as well
man, this thread doesnt talk about price, but about the mining altcoin
and I answer difficulty of mining ETH coin, not ETH price or investing in ETH

people know that ETH is good for long term, but to mine it isnt easy at all
we need big resource to get good amount. if not, it isnt worth it

For me, Bitcoin is always and all the ways is still profitable for the mining purpose, You have to think about the core of this cryptocurrency so Bitcoin is ultimately the base of this system, people still know Bitcoin is everything, many people know the Blockchain and Cryptocurrency though the Bitcoin, so I think Bitcoin mining is the best for mining issue, if you think about the altcoin then Ethreum will come first in terms of profit-generating aspect, I believe Bitcoin and Ethereum both have a good positive in this forum yet.

I think better you buy an altcoin and hold it than you want to start mining because not fast way how to get much profit with bitcoin mining, when you buy altcoin you can sell after price is up with one day or week later, but for mining you have waiting maximum eight months later to get back your salary and next month later is your chance to get profit.

You have to make a investment to profits mining or staking. Mining is very expensive and also has country legality problem. Before Bitcoin halving you should start Bitcoin mining. If you have interest in others coin than you can do Ethereum mining because after Ethereum 2.0 only support proof of staking.
I think mining is not affected by the laws of the country, no country actually bans mining. But the cost of mining in each country is different because the price of electricity and mining cost are different. I still prefer mining because it helps us to have a more stable income than trading and margin
If you are not affected of high rate electricity then you can continue mining coins. But in my part I already take down my small mining rig as the
generated charges for my electricity bills almost double than my actual mine value.
You need to do research and check if you are willing to hold coins and wait before selling it as the market volatility also affected your profits.

I think Ethereum is still the most profitable altcoin for mining, but if you start now you should calculate when you will get return on investment because if buy equipment and all stuff and pay for electricity much then is on other countries you will start make profit after some months.

Better to mine PoS coins for now. My advice mining Staking is not too complicated for beginners, you just research the coins that have the potential and go to exchange. PoW mining for now is almost unprofitable, it also needs a GPU that synchronizes with the coins you are mining, electricity also needs to be noticed so that you can get the maximum profit. For BTC, LTC, ETH mining, only special mining companies can get the maximum profit, if you want to mine the coins that I call 6-12 GPUs, I don't think you will get anything.
It is true that mining newly released coins is indeed profitable if the price is quite stable.

altcoin has just been released and the difficulty level is still low so you can mine the altcoin using your VGA, usually I use VGA to mine the newly released Altcoin of course depending on the supported algo, try going to this discussion to get information about mining in full, I only know how to mine with Nvidia with Algo Scrypt

but you must choose the new coins that you want to mine because there are many new threads that contains a virus to steal all your documents

It should be cryptonight coins. I don't even think if you can be very profitable when you are mining another coin just like ethereum or something else as the block halving has made it becomes less and less profitable to be mined. It's better to choose the best coin that is still having small total hashrate and low difficulty rather than try your chance on the big coins. that will only waste a lot of your time.

There's no other option besides the popular GPU mining but you can try if you want to the CPU mining. There's also the consensus of proof of storage and do the research what it is all about.  The most profitable coins are always the ones that are very popular.

But the technique of some miners, it's no longer profitable for them to mine those popular altcoins, because of its difficulty and that's why they are looking for a newer coin and mine it for few times and wait until it hypes.

You can try searching yourself which which suits your device, ETH is probably the most mine by GPU miners by just joining the pool. You can check the ones you can mine in coinmarketcap.com, the ones with (*) are the ones you can not mine. They however didn't put (*) to the coins that you can stake.

You'd rather be mining a coin that is listed on various exchanges such as ETH or XMR because you can be sure you can trade it to pay your monthly bills.

There are different algorithm followed by coins and their mining process too differs.
Ethereum is the most profitable coin right now to mine and is effectively mined by gaming grade GPUs while SHA256 based coins like bitcoin and scrypt based coins like Litecoin are best mined by their dedicated mining hardware.

There are some calculators that help you to choose the most profitable one. But I would prefer to mine some more estabilished altcoin to prevent possible dumps. My tips are Ethereum or QuarkChain.

GPUs are best imo, but honestly? your question is way too broad haha
PLUS:  game theory of PoW man, if we told you what was MOST profitable publicly, everyone would switch to it
then diff would drive up, sell pressure mount, and it would NOT be the most profitable after that haha, thats how it works man Tongue
so its kinda a silly question your asking, same with what machine is best, as they all have a purpose for different coins ....

Mining is expensive method to create income but mining in red market is not wise decision. People will give many advice, such as bitcoin, eth and ltc but when red market will destroy big profit you have. I'll not stop you for mining but analyze again because built your own rig in warehouse/ garage is the best solution for miner. You need total in mining world, down trend still running and only rig can give you income.
