While speaking about the wallets it is also important to mention about the so-called 'private key'. You have to keep it SAFE. Please, do some research before you operate your wallet. Watch relevant YouTube videos will help a lot!  Smiley

Is there any difference between coinbase, myetherwallet and blockchain? Which one is better in your opinion?

Yes. there is a huge difference. Coinbase is a service really, not a wallet. You never really have control over your bitcoin if you store them there, since they own the private keys.

MEW is pretty solid, but only for ethereum. Although i believe the official ethereum client has way more features then them.

Blockchain.info is a webwallet, they have no access to your keys, but neither do you (unless you export them, which is almost impossible. ( or derive the seed ofcours, which can be buggy.)
It also misses a lot of functionality if you compare it to something like https://electrum.org/#home

I had no idea. It's good to know about these little nuances that make the difference. Thank you!  Smiley

You search for the wallets and download them, the best ones are free and easy to use. Make sure to select famous wallet, the rest might be scam. You can also watch YouTube for that, there are many good videos on the topic there. Good luck!  Wink

you can get a wallet through myetherwallet.com or through blockchain.com. but the most easiest and user friendly is myetherwallet. after creating either of the wallet, you have to keep your private key very safe or your password

Create a digital currency wallet where you can securely store digital currency. Connect your bank account, debit card, or credit card so that you can exchange digital currency into and out of your local currency. Buy some Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Litecoin to begin using the future of money.

Just search it in to google or direct search Myetherwallet.com and enter it,  afterwards you can see how to make an wallet that you want. Be responsible to your wallet account and do not give your private key with no one else.

I use only myetherwallet and coinomi because coinbase and blockchain are wallets from third parties. I would maybe exchange on coinbase, but store the coins only on wallets, that provide private keys and are not buggy.

thank you so much for the explanations

You didn't specify the wallet you wanted.. If it's the ether wallet try myetherwallet.com,but if it's the bitcoin wallet I prefer the blockchain.info or you and also download the coinomi app.

Myetherwallet - supports only erc20 tokens but that is a huge number
