Is there any possibility that the bitcoin will going down after segwit?
SegWit have no downsides so It can't make the price go down. It's being almost two months since SegWit activation and as you can see, the price is going nowhere but UP.

My Bitcoin Core node is still crashing during startup at random times. Sometimes it loads just fine, other times the start screen becomes not frozen with the "not responding" message and i have to close it.
The faulty module seems to be ntdll.dll. I thought the 0.15.0.1 fix was supposed to fix this but it still crashes.

I have found this syncs blockchain much faster vs old wallet versions, not sure if i just got lucky but at 1 stage i was downloading 1.67% per hour on my current laptop and usually if i get anywhere near 0.5% per hour on pre 0.15 versions i was pretty chuffed. Thanks for all the hard work from devs Smiley. thanks..

The 0.15.0.1 release fixed only a specific bug caused by a fee setting being removed. You must have a different issue.

Question/concern..
Not sure of all the "sauce" that goes into generating the public/private keys for bitcoin, but in any of it, is there any RSA Public key being used? If so seems there is a hack out now that's able to factor large prime numbers..
Just google "KRACK and ROCA" its so bad that even WPA2 clients are vulnerable..

No. ECDSA is not affected by that issue.

Note that KRACK affects WPA2 directly, not RSA, and ROCA is an issue with a specific implementation of RSA not the algorithm itself. But no, Bitcoin only uses elliptic curve cryptography on secp256k1, an area of cryptography founded on the hardness of the discrete logarithm problem which is different to the prime factorization problem RSA relies upon. It also uses SHA2 and RIPEMD160 for hashing but that's separate too.

In order for the fee estimator to work, you need to have your node be one for some time. It needs to have received several blocks with a mostly up to date mempool in order to actually estimate fees. This is because it will compare what in its mempool got into a block and how long that took to happen, so it cannot use historical blockchain data.

I also think that there will not be any drawdowns of Bitcoin, it will only grow. So, do not panic and do not need to be afraid of SegWit.
