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

The block chain is the main innovation of Bitcoin. It is the first distributed timestamping system.

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
