I'm trying to join MegaBitCoin and they want my bitcoin address.  Unfortunately, Blockchain.com isn't available in the US so what can I use instead?

This is the problem with newbies asking question not providing enough details and not coming back to his own thread to provide additional information or to even thank people who tries to help with his issues, now no one here knows about this MegaBitcoin sounds new to us, this is the only MegaBitcoin I found https://etherscan.io/token/0xf3198d5ca7a6defb356e4b1089f51525d9d472ee and it's an ERC 20 Token.

First time hear about MegaBitcoin Cheesy, please focus on original Bitcoin, for your own good Smiley.
Learn basics first, read guides, watch bitcoin documentaries.
Then only then when you understand what you doing explore altcoins if you decide its worth it. I don't think it is, but everyone have their own opinions.

You can make your own wallet just download electrum wallet .

May I kNow what is that megabitcoin for?

If they are only asking for the wallet address I don't see any bad things given it , how ever if it's just a ponzi scheme I think its better not to invest.

If its also ICO you've better not to participate because it is illegal  in your country.

1)
MegaBitcoin is a scam coin, just as 99%+ of all cryptocurrencies. Keep away if you don't want to lose your money.

2)
Don't use a web wallet. There is literally no reason for you to use a web wallet. Just download a reputable wallet software and use that instead.
For a desktop wallet, electrum is a good choice. Just make sure to only download it from the official website and to verify the signature.

With a web wallet, you are vulnerable to all of the same attack vectors as using a desktop wallet. But additionally there more concerns regarding security and safety when using a web wallet in comparison to a desktop- or mobile wallet.

Here are few safe wallets for newbies
1. Coinomi wallet
2. Trust wallet
3. Copay
4. Bread wallet

You should read, use and verify it before suggesting people WARNING - Coinomi Wallet CRITICAL Vulnerability Made Me Lose My Life Savings, you can look how Coinomi is not trusted wallet. For me, electrum is more better for newbies, because it's simple to use, safe and trusted wallet.

Why do you want to join megabitcoin? That's not a safe website, any website that deals with casino or money doubling aren't safe, you can lose all your funds

Bitcoin wallets are of different types, we have online wallets and decentralized wallets, the difference is private keys, any wallet that don't give you private key or Mnemonic/recovery seed when setting the wallet up is no good, they are called online wallet.

Here are few safe wallets for newbies
1. Coinomi wallet
2. Trust wallet
3. Copay
4. Bread wallet

Go on Google play store and download any of the above, remember, keep your keys or recovery seed safe, if you lost your phone, with the private key you will recover your fund, that's why online wallet aren't good, once you lost access it's goodbye

From what i know, blockchain.com is not available to buy bitcoin in all american states, maybe you are from one of them. However, it still can be used as web-wallet for anybody anywhere in earth. There is no restrictions to use it as a wallet.

You can create bitcoin address on coinbase, and other site beside blockchain
If op is just looking for a bitcoin client to generate his own address, then you gave him a bad option.
Coinbase wallet isn't a real wallet as it doesn't give the user his private key. It simply provides a unique address for each user account which he can't even change it.
I would suggest electrum,bither,or mycelium. Electrum for both desktop/mobile is friendly-use for newbies and pros.

1. If MegaBitCoin is another Bitcoin fork or a token, please, stop.
2. You can pick a wallet that fits you, here[1]. Personally though on my desktop I prefer the Wasabi Wallet[2].
