Crypto's will go up, slowly (there are no "get rich fast" risktakers anymore) but steadily (there's always discrepancy between demand/offer. Almost all Bitcoins are mined, mining is expensive low margin business).
Mining for little fella is only profitable in two forms ...
a) Mining XMR with XMRcgpu.com or ETH with Claymore.
b) Doing research of new coins to spot one with skilled and focused developers and added functionality/speed/anonymity. And mine as soon as possible and hope for value to spike up.
