What do you guys think of Coinbase paper wallet option ? I want to create one, but I don't have any experience with the in particular, and was wondering if anyone has experience with Coinbase option and how it compares to other physical wallets that can be printed ?

It's not really safe but it's good enough for daily use. I would recommend creating paper wallets using bitaddress.org local version(after downloading).

You can find the new Paper Wallet feature under Account Settings > Integrations in your Coinbase account.  You can read more about paper wallets at the Bitcoin Wiki. Enjoy!

Okay thanks I'll check them out, but could you explain why their paper wallet is safer to store for the long term compared to Coinbase ? They look like similar paper wallet models.
