How does that help him? He wants to know which of those two he should use.

I agree with you because nobody can predict that now.

Hey guys.

What do you think is the best online wallet coinbase or blockchain?

I really do not whant to lose my coins same as mgtox or whats the name.



Go with blockchain.info!!! You can get hold of your private key. Coinbase is more a service if you want to buy BTC and not to be used as an online wallet, as far as I know. But you may want to consider using a light wallet on your machine. It's safer and more reliable!

Blockchain.info is superior due to the fact you can see your private keys whenever you want. Coinbase controls your wallet really..

Yeah, But coinbase has to control you coins/address. They are a service for buying Bitcoins. Whereas Blockchain.info merely gives you your own wallet you can use however you like. They don't care what happens to your coins!

For now I only was using multibit since 2013 and i had very little issues with it. It is fast and secured. With his wallet you can store your btc on desktop computer

Yeah, but the original poster asked about which online wallet to use! MultiBit is better, in my opinion as well, but if you're looking for an online wallet, i.e. a web-based-wallet, you have to choose something else! Please read the questions!

Do you mean blockchain.info? The blockchain itself is part of Bitcoin, where all the transactions are being stored. Blockchain.info is just another online wallet service and blockchain explorer. Hmmm I think I'd go with Blockchain.info. Because you're rather anonymous and I think you also keep part of your key yourself (so they can't be hacked, effectively)

I would say blockchain, but online wallets are not 100% safe , so there is a risk losing your coins anyway. For your main funds i suggest using cold wallet, but if you are looking for the safest online wallet, I would recommend blockchain, at least i had no problems with It for over an year.

i recomended to use blockchain.info, i also use it, it has 2FA security if you want to double your account security
maybe there are many wallet, but you must first use blockchain.info, you will not use the others ...

I think they're both quite legit and trustworthy. Why won't you use a wallet you run directly on your computer? Having control of the private keys and thus your coins is most important!

Use blockchain.info,you can control your private keys and blockchain.info does not have access to your private keys.

In coinbase you do not control your private keys only BTC addresses and coinbase has access to these.

Between the two, blockchain.info wallet is better.

Coinbase works exactly as same way as mtgox, and you don't have the private keys of your bitcoin.
Blockchain.info works differently. The site keeps the an encrypted version of your wallet file only, with both decryption and encryption done within your browser. And so you are the only one having the access to your private keys.

Please also enable 2FA to improve the safety further.

After what happen to mtgox and tradefotress, I believe cold storage or keeping in your bitcoin-qt is the best....

Coinbase is a shared wallet service which does not allow you to access your bitcoin directly as you do not have the private key. It is a hassle if they experience downtime when you need access to the coin. Blockchain.info on the otherhand, allows you to control your private key yourself by sending you a copy of it. You do not need to be afraid of downtimes since the private key will always be in your control. Blockchain.info is generally very safe with 2 factor authentication. Anyone can bruteforce your coinbase account with your email but not Blockchain.info since they need a long string of letters and numbers to access your account.
