Would you guys suggest for a beginner to focus on mining solely bitcoins? Or would you say that it's smarter to mine for the other digital currencies out there?
Unless you've got cheap electricity and tons of monetary resources, I'd say it's bets to mine altcoins right now. If you've got the extra funds, just invest in some btc.
You should receive your ROI mining alts faster than you would btc.
Just my two cents.
