I've been using my GPU miner as a means to get into some newer coins not on exchanges yet and improving my position with other coins. Good example is mining ZCLassic and selling for ETN. Was debating on BURST but I think I will pass for now. I do agree though, currently it's better to just be buying on exchanges and selling at a profit. Usually enough percentage change to make profits just by setting buy and sell orders.
