What is the benefit of bitcoin core?

Bitcoin Core will signal support for and recognise SegWit enabled blocks, amongst other additions. Depending on your stance in the max block size issue, you might like to consider using one of the other many bitcoin clients such as https://www.bitcoinunlimited.info/ which supports bigger maximum block sizes as a solution to the full blocks we currently are experiencing.
What client you run has zero effect on what becomes the new standard which is determined by a majority of miners only. You're free to use whatever client you want though, it's like publicly showing your support for a political party but not having the right to vote...

i remember that merchants have an impact as well maybe not directly but they will influence miners decision, if for example the majority go with a specific side, either way at some point miners will be forced to do a decision...

Both, Bitcoin Core and Bitcoin Unlimited, are full nodes. Fulle nodes have advantages in terms of privacy (no address information is leaked) and security (more difficult to feed false data than SPV clients). If you dont run your full node in pruned mode you can also help others sync their node. If you accept inbound connections you provide information to SPV clients.

Small question not worth to start a new thread:


System: OS X El Capitan 10.11.6
Wallet: Bitcoin Core 13.1

I have a backup of my wallet.dat file. Where do I move it if I want to restore it?

On internet I found that it should be moved to ˜\Library\Application Support\Bitcoin\
But I guess that is outdated information, because that folder does not exist on my computer, neither with hidden files shown.
You put it in the data directory. If you changed it (i.e. chose a different folder with the initial startup dialog which asked you if you wanted to), then you put it in the folder that you specified. Otherwise, it should go in the default data directory which is the path you mentioned.

Also, I wonder, can I use this same file to restore a wallet on a windows PC?
Yes.

Thanks! Indeed I specified a different folder, found it!

Is there a manual or tutorial on how to compile that on linux
and what toolchain/dependencies are needet?

I don't want to use a prebuild binary on my server.

I got trouble on compiling it on debian64.

Read https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/build-unix.md

Thank you for pointing that, I was not aware that now there is a bit more as
it was one month before.
I will try it again and report.

how does one go about exporting the "seed" out of this version, instead of saving each wallet.dat file, my understanding is that we can just save the seed to access all the wallets.dat/addresses from that  1 seed
You can't do that yet. The HD wallets created by this version just allow you to backup the wallet.dat file once (you will have to backup every time you change the password) and not have to do it every 100 transactions.

kaspersky internet security see that version as virus today

Old news. AVs have constantly been flagging Bitcoin Core as a virus. Just check the hashes and signatures to verify your install is legit and then add it to your AVs exception list.

That text ... "not a virus", "bitcoin miner".
