if you use blockchain make sure you don't use their alias feature, and use two-factor auth.  I would use the bitcoin-qt on your computer with proper security.

Use bitcoin-qt on a new pc/laptop you only use for bitcoin.

Imagine most bitcoin users use blockchain, even for large amounts, now imagine the server gets hacked and it goes unnoticed for a few weeks, while all private keys of logged in users get transfered to the hackers.
Bitcoin would be dead then.

People still dont get that centralized/decentralized thing, sucks  :-\

qt if you have super fast internet and you are willing to download 9-10gb of data, then go for it.

if you believe blockchain is stable and you want quick access all the time, then go for that
