It is quite profitable! actually one of the most profitable coins right now.
This is a joke.
why is it a joke?
There are many (shit)coins which give more
BTC than BTX. Sell its and buy BTX - best strategy.

i can't see that many to be honest, they are giving all the same profit but bitcore give you big interest every week
What he means is mining something more profitable and exchange them to BTX ...
