Okay, thanks for the advise so far! I see I have alot to learn about the technology yet. I'm very new to cryptocurrencies and I really see it as being something that by jumping on now could be worth it in the future.
One other question, is gpu mining going to be around for a while? I know with bitcoin and some other cryptos Asic miners get built and take over the gpu's, but are some cryptos being made like ethereum to help the lone gpu miner?!
