I think SegWit is a big deal. Why do you think it will be released during a minor version? It is the biggest change for many years.
Maybe because I do an adequate amount of research before posting? The developers have stated that it is coming within a minor version and that other things are planned for 0.13. Keep in mind that the next major version isn't going to to be released soon (the aim is 6-7 months after each major release). I would also like to add that I can't be 100% certain in this case.

Any estimated time before this to come ? Since the latest update was pretty recently, I doubt that we will see something in the near future.

You can clearly see that sometimes the amount of time between minor versions is very short. 2016-02-23 - Bitcoin Core version 0.12.0 released

Segwit has not been released. You are doing an inadequate amount of reading. The code for Segwit has been released and merged. It will most likely come with the next Bitcoin Core version (0.12.2/3).

When will those two version be released? I shall buy some bitcoin just before the release and make a quick profit.
Nobody knows. Forcing the developers to work on a schedule isn't going to help anyone either, and could make matters worse (software - quality wise). I'd say within the next 3-4 months (since it is a minor release; these come quicker), unless a severe bug gets found.Segwit has not been released. You are doing an inadequate amount of reading.

I think the crowd has beaten you to it.

I doubt SegWit has anything to do with the latest price increase. I think a combination of good news lately are contributing to the rise in the price. We have seen the release of OpenBazaar and the
added interest that created, and on top of that the buildup to the Halving and the hype surrounding that and some rumours about Steam offering Bitcoin as a payment option. We might see some
significant price increases, if all of this comes together. Scaling problems temporarily solved.

Well even if it hasn't been released, I think it has already had an impact on the price. On the testnet, segwit has proven to mine blocks higher than 3MB already, clearing any doubts of bitcoin scaling or not. It has also straightened the value of the Core devs even more, and has definitely killed the Core-Classic controversy, since Core devs are obviously the guys making the real advances. All of the good improvements in tech + the halving are going to make the price go to jupiter.
What is this -- a Master's class?

Since it was officially released bitcoin prices have shot up and some are claiming a cause and effect. Any word on how fast it is being adopted by modes and miners?
