I have problem with my Bitcoin Core, both 0.13.0 and 0.13.1. After 34 weeks processing blocks on disk I'm getting fatal error again and again. It says I have to look into debug.log but cannot find it.

By the way. when I install I got 2 shortcut, bitcoin qt and bitcoin qt -testnet. Why?

but there are also a lot of people who just want to keep their value of their work and invest to combat inflation and the devaluation from their work.

4 397 214 french peoples consumes the same power of the Bitcoin MINING during a year.
517 french peoples consumes the same power of the Bitcoin NODE network during 1 year.

1 french people consume 7 379 kWh in 1 year.

but no assurance that it will go on forever.

Segregated witness soft fork

Segregated witness (segwit) is a soft fork that, if activated, will
allow transaction-producing software to separate (segregate) transaction
signatures (witnesses) from the part of the data in a transaction that is
covered by the txid. This provides several immediate benefits:

   Elimination of unwanted transaction malleability: Segregating the witness
      allows both existing and upgraded software to calculate the transaction
      identifier (txid) of transactions without referencing the witness, which can
      sometimes be changed by third-parties (such as miners) or by co-signers in a
      multisig spend. This solves all known cases of unwanted transaction
      malleability, which is a problem that makes programming Bitcoin wallet
      software more difficult and which seriously complicates the design of smart
      contracts for Bitcoin.

   Capacity increase: Segwit transactions contain new fields that are not
      part of the data currently used to calculate the size of a block, which
      allows a block containing segwit transactions to hold more data than allowed
      by the current maximum block size. Estimates based on the transactions
      currently found in blocks indicate that if all wallets switch to using
      segwit, the network will be able to support about 70% more transactions. The
      network will also be able to support more of the advanced-style payments
      (such as multisig) than it can support now because of the different weighting
      given to different parts of a transaction after segwit activates (see the
      following section for details).

   Weighting data based on how it affects node performance: Some parts of
      each Bitcoin block need to be stored by nodes in order to validate future
      blocks; other parts of a block can be immediately forgotten (pruned) or used
      only for helping other nodes sync their copy of the block chain.  One large
      part of the immediately prunable data are transaction signatures (witnesses),
      and segwit makes it possible to give a different "weight" to segregated
      witnesses to correspond with the lower demands they place on node resources.
      Specifically, each byte of a segregated witness is given a weight of 1, each
      other byte in a block is given a weight of 4, and the maximum allowed weight
      of a block is 4 million.  Weighting the data this way better aligns the most
      profitable strategy for creating blocks with the long-term costs of block
      validation.

   Signature covers value: A simple improvement in the way signatures are
      generated in segwit simplifies the design of secure signature generators
      (such as hardware wallets), reduces the amount of data the signature
      generator needs to download, and allows the signature generator to operate
      more quickly.  This is made possible by having the generator sign the amount
      of bitcoins they think they are spending, and by having full nodes refuse to
      accept those signatures unless the amount of bitcoins being spent is exactly
      the same as was signed.  For non-segwit transactions, wallets instead had to
      download the complete previous transactions being spent for every payment
      they made, which could be a slow operation on hardware wallets and in other
      situations where bandwidth or computation speed was constrained.

   Linear scaling of sighash operations: In 2015 a block was produced that
      required about 25 seconds to validate on modern hardware because of the way
      transaction signature hashes are performed.  Other similar blocks, or blocks
      that could take even longer to validate, can still be produced today.  The
      problem that caused this can't be fixed in a soft fork without unwanted
      side-effects, but transactions that opt-in to using segwit will now use a
      different signature method that doesn't suffer from this problem and doesn't
      have any unwanted side-effects.

   Increased security for multisig: Bitcoin addresses (both P2PKH addresses
      that start with a '1' and P2SH addresses that start with a '3') use a hash
      function known as RIPEMD-160.  For P2PKH addresses, this provides about 160
      bits of security---which is beyond what cryptographers believe can be broken
      today.  But because P2SH is more flexible, only about 80 bits of security is
      provided per address. Although 80 bits is very strong security, it is within
      the realm of possibility that it can be broken by a powerful adversary.
      Segwit allows advanced transactions to use the SHA256 hash function instead,
      which provides about 128 bits of security  (that is 281 trillion times as
      much security as 80 bits and is equivalent to the maximum bits of security
      believed to be provided by Bitcoin's choice of parameters for its Elliptic
      Curve Digital Security Algorithm [ECDSA].)


We make a better world/network ... but you can choose to not use it ... if you want.


   More efficient almost-full-node security Satoshi Nakamoto's original
      Bitcoin paper describes a method for allowing newly-started full nodes to
      skip downloading and validating some data from historic blocks that are
      protected by large amounts of proof of work.  Unfortunately, Nakamoto's
      method can't guarantee that a newly-started node using this method will
      produce an accurate copy of Bitcoin's current ledger (called the UTXO set),
      making the node vulnerable to falling out of consensus with other nodes.
      Although the problems with Nakamoto's method can't be fixed in a soft fork,
      Segwit accomplishes something similar to his original proposal: it makes it
      possible for a node to optionally skip downloading some blockchain data
      (specifically, the segregated witnesses) while still ensuring that the node
      can build an accurate copy of the UTXO set for the block chain with the most
      proof of work.  Segwit enables this capability at the consensus layer, but
      note that Bitcoin Core does not provide an option to use this capability as
      of this 0.13.1 release.

   Script versioning: Segwit makes it easy for future soft forks to allow
      Bitcoin users to individually opt-in to almost any change in the Bitcoin
      Script language when those users receive new transactions.  Features
      currently being researched by Bitcoin Core contributors that may use this
      capability include support for Schnorr signatures, which can improve the
      privacy and efficiency of multisig transactions (or transactions with
      multiple inputs), and Merklized Abstract Syntax Trees (MAST), which can
      improve the privacy and efficiency of scripts with two or more conditions.
      Other Bitcoin community members are studying several other improvements
      that can be made using script versioning.

but is it actually profitable?
