Pros: no.
Minuses:
Very high entry price.
Very long payback period of equipment.

Low entry price.

The price of the entrance is determined by yourself.
A variety of crypto currency.
Buying cheaper and selling more expensive, you can double the capital for a day on some transactions.
Good growth of popular crypto-currencies in the future (bitcoin, ether).
Minuses:

Very complicated schemes for replenishing the account and withdrawing money.
Due to large chains of withdrawal and replenishment, you lose money on commissions.
This is a stock exchange - you can lose a lot if you buy currency at the peak.
The method does not suit those who are not ready to devote a lot of time to this.

- Purchase of a crypto-currency on one exchange and sale to another one
Meaning: there are many crypto-exchange exchanges, on which you can often see a significant difference in the cost of bitcoins. It can reach 100-200 dollars for 1 bitokoyn. You buy on one and sell for another, earnings on the difference in rates.
Pros: you can earn enough money a day, it all depends on the amount of investment and the number of transactions.
Minuses:
It makes sense if you can buy at least 1 bitokoyn.
Initial difficulties in registration and verification on different stock exchanges.
The first time it will be difficult enough to understand how to make and withdraw money promptly. Then it will be easier.
Permanent sitting at the computer and monitoring exchanges.
You can buy at the maximum, and at the time of transfer from one stock exchange to another, quotes can go down, and you will remain in the red.
Sites:
poloniex.com;
exmo.me;
bittrex.com;
bitfinex.com.
The bottom line: you need to have the assiduity and work quickly so that the course of the crypto currency does not fall down while you buy it in one place and transfer it to another. It's worth starting with bitkoyna, as it is the most interesting from the point of view of the exchange rate difference.
