how safe are coins in online wallets like blockchain?

m getting a few coins tomorrow and usually i have time to transfer and buy everything as quickly as possible, but tomorrow i'm going to have to be somewhere for a few hours right after i purchase some coins. so my question is will my coins be safe for about 5 hours in a blockchain wallet?

If you are going to use a wallet store it on your computer and use Electrum.

Any wallet that is not on your computer, you do not have complete control of.

Not safe. You should never leave your coins in an online wallet including market wallets.

I mean, you can take the chance and you might be fine but don't be too surprised if you go to make your purchase and find they've disappeared.

Electrum is your friend.

If you do, most certainly enable 2FA
