Bitcoin is money, and like anything that has high value earning it is not an easy thing especially if we know bitcoin does not have as many ways of being earned as fiat does, so my advice is to stop thinking it is easy to earn bitcoin, you need to work long and hard.
And with that mindset, it's the fact that earning bitcoin isn't that easy for a person that doesn't have broad knowledge when it comes to bitcoin. But if you are aware of what you are doing and probably you are making decent amount with your source that is going to give you a nice income. You can just trade with alt coins just like what everyone is doing now.
Trading altcoins can be profitable, keyword here: can be, unless you are skilled in trade and to be able to select which coins are going to be successful then trading can make you lose a lot of money instead of being a way to earn profits, so it is not as easy as it may seem.
