Meta mask and mew are really very nice initiatives for the ethereum blockchain.

I don't think they would fit so well for bitcoin, as btc don't have all those smartcontracts and dapps yet.

Be careful as new is not that safe.
It's a web wallet which you expose your keys all the time..

Metamask and MEW are so popular not because of smartcontracts and dapps, but because it's insanely hard to use any sort of desktop wallets for Ethereum - the blockchain is bloated and even pruned mode doesn't help much, because the syncing is painfully slow and consumes a ton of RAM and CPU time. So, ETH users don't really have much of a choice and have to use this type of clients.

I'm sure there's plenty of Bitcoin wallets in a form of browser extensions or html pages, but people don't use them because there are much better options like good old Bitcoin Core or very popular Electrum.

Its more of security issues that most are probably not using those webwallets. Hacking and phishing is very common. Lots of users were using blockchain.info wallets before, I don't know why this site seem to be trusted but I guess it works for them. Registered users has their mnemonic phrase and private key which I guess made them trust it and they can sign a message too.

I like to use the web wallet because I think it's easy and secure. MyEtherwallet is covered with private key provided by them, but the private key can not be given to people. It must be kept by us and should not be forgotten because it is the key to accessing our wallet account.

Hello, it's look like you will want to use our decentralized wallet platform which can be load/backup your wallet.dat and encrypting it like myetherwallet, here some information :

Based on the idea of Ethereum Decentralize Wallet, we develop Bitbibe Decentralized Wallet Platform (BDWP) which supports Bitcoin & all Altcoin forked from Bitcoin Core by a master wallet. The special thing is, BDWP can access directly to your local wallet and connect to blockchain network. Besides, wallet used in BDWP system can be encrypted by users. Thus, your wallet will be safe even when system has been hacked or gone out.

 all of this look like centralize wallet or a security wallet for bitcoin, it's not really like myetherwallet, i mean i want a bitcoin webwallet which simulating my local wallet to a web wallet platform, then i can use my original addresses to receiving btc, sending btc, import/ export private key,... like local wallet then i can backup with all new addresses im created/imported from web wallet to my local wallet. In summary, i mean i want to find a bitcoin web wallet which same with my local wallet or they are one, the only difference point is web platform and application platform.

On the bitcoin.org/en/wallets/web it is not showing all online/web wallets and many are missing, but I would suggest to take a look at blockchain.info and some others.
Coinbase is also not bad you can use it on website but also when you are on-the-go traveling or something else where you can't have access in PC or any other devices then using a phone/mobile client is good and Coinbase does offer such a service but there are many cons as they don't give you the opportunity to own 100% the address, earning from forks (except BCH) and signing messages.

I don't think there is any wallet like myetherwallet for bitcoin, I'm actually wondering why there is no such service, as it's really easy to use and very useful, especially when used with hardware wallet and offline.

As people say, there are blochain.info and electrum options. I used both of them and looks fair but still don't feel comfortable as I do with myetherwallet. I cannot use properly blockchain.info, it would have been more useful and userfriendly maybe.

Blockchain wallet maybe? It's simple and easy use Bitcoin wallet.
You can import wallet, create wallet like MEW. And also you can set up fee transaction every time you want to do a transaction.

Electrum wallet have both pc as well as android clients, I don't really see any difference b/w using electrum vs online wallets such as blockchain.info etc, the only thing that comes to my mind is that you risk exposing your private keys when importing them to online wallets.

Jaxx wallet also provides pc/android as well as chrome extension.

Try CoinBase, Ledger, TREZOR, and KeepKey. Also, to be updated on the trends, try to keep in touch with news about new releases of legitimate secured web wallets.

Try blockchain.info and get a free wallet there. i believe it is a web wallet and like myetherwallet.
I still dont know about other web wallet for bitcoin. but it is safer using hard wallet than web wallet.
