We all know that there is corruption everywhere, like in government or any other organization. Because of money, corruption can always happen with greedy people who always wants more money to them. Since bitcoin can be considered as money, can it also lead to corruption?

actually this could happen depending on how people use bitcoin like what, if for crime like corruption this can happen but not good. better not to use like that.

Bitcoin has alot of tendency to bring about corruption. Transactions via bitcoin are largely untraceable and lots of people can use bitcoin for money laundering and other illegal activities. Authorities lacks the requisite know how to investigate transactions using Bitcoin. Monies laundered through Bitcoin are difficult to trace and hence it aids and abet corruption unless there is some checks and balances.

If we talk about a possible tightening of corruption and Bitcoin in tandem, then I want to say One word. If there is a problem with corruption in the country, Bitcoin is given an opportunity. With impunity, pay off or keep acquired by illegal means. No more action from Bitcoin. It can not be. And when there is no corruption, Bitcoin will also be clean. So you must first fight corruption, not with the crypto currency.

Corruption by greedy people but not by government, yes.  It is evident because there are many investment sites that promises high profit, high return of invested btc in just a short period of time.  It is like 10% interest on your btc everyday.  That percentage is really big that is why many will invest.  After awhile or just before a month, it will turn out to be a scam.
I don’t think so that bitcoin is going to lead corruption because when you study bitcoin so you will nor learn bad things it always tech a good things and I believe that bitcoin help to humanity so if you want to use bitcoin for good things it will help you in your life and I think it’s enough to earn and I’m sure you will not do any corruption.

We cannot remove, replace or disregard a corruption specially in government because corruption is always there and always included in any administration so that its simple its possible that bitcoin can have any corruption because bitcoin os one of the money that we know and you can earn a big amount so that its possible to have a corruption here in bitcoin.

That's another thing I guess, HYIP has already created a bad reputation and investors are not really investing it hoping for a long term success but they just want to gamble with the short term and hoping they can get their ROI with a little profit and just leave the HYIP.
Maybe when bitcoin was still new there are a lot of victims with this kind of scams but people are much wiser now.
I agree to that. People right now are smarter than before and that is why HYIPs cannot fool the people to invest their money into that. HYIPs are just part of the history and their customers or possible victims are getting lower in amount because people choose the other source of income rather than the HYIPs that is just pure scam and just being designed to steal people's money.
HYIP replaced by ICOs Grin.
You can see there are many ponzi ICO projects like HYIP.
Pumped at first time and dump to low price or dump below the ICO at first time are the form of new scam type.

Absolutely yes. Look at the real world, many of the people around on us are looking for something that will give them a lot of money. Since many of people are corrupting some of the money of other people, in this internet currency (Bitcoin) is also possible. Some of them are scammers, posting phising links, etc. These activities are illegal activities but they're doing it because they wanted to have a lots of money.
Corruption is occurs in a lot of ways and it is not always about the money. Bitcoin is also vulnerable for the corruption and since it is untraceable so it is very possible for the bad people to just use it as a way of payment for their illegal activities to steal some money from the people and that is called corruption and that is why there is still a lot of people are not comfortable with bitcoin because of that 'anonymity'.
It does happen because the bitcoin is not the reason for the corruption and it can happen anywhere the more bitcoin you will save the more your greed will increase to earn the money but you will have to control yourself and to use the bitcoin in the constructive and the fair way, if a lot of the people will buy the bitcoin they will help you more but this is not the time to lose the temper and the patience at all.

Yes, it would be if it used by the corrupt. People especially those who are hungry to have loys of money will use biycoin especially now that it has a big value. But i think its better to use the "scam" rather than corruption.

Even the mother of all nations have a corruption in their hearts, the thing here is that we just cant blame the blockchain technology by the actions the leads to corruption. Everything can lead to corruption, even alts and that's how the world work. If you are worried that BTC will become a big part of terrorism, crime and drugs then even if BTC dont exists this crimes will never cease to exists. It is here even before the time of Cain and abel. Questions like this is so obvious that people are blaming things for their own actions, and thats sad that humanity lost the way of viewing things that instead of fixing themselves, they are banning something that is worth using for.
I think bitcoin is a digital currency and it’s also true that its decentralized but I believe that there will be someone who is going to operate bitcoin and he know very well about use of bitcoin so I don’t think so he will allow to use bitcoin in corruption by someone because bitcoin is here to help us and it’s not going to teach us bad things.

I often see bitcoin used for negative things, such as gambling, illegal transactions, and much more. I think there are some people who use bitcoin as a tool of corruption, well we never know the evil intentions of a person, or a group.

True, bitcoin can be use for illegal matters and corruption as well. A lot of people are now currently involve in illegal doings. Even a politician, a rich people or ordinary people can do it as long as they have the skills.
We can't avoid this, the fact, there are many kinds of people and it doesn't mean all people are good people, only using money for right work. And Bitcoin is a currency for anyone, it doesn't limit anyone wants to use it. However, this issue has been around for a long time and has not been resolved to this day, before Bitcoin and cryptocurrency released.

I think corruption can not run in bitcoin world, because I think bitcoin has a very transparent transaction, because that's the my reason bitcoin can not lead to corruption.

Same opinion my friend. Corruption cant enter bitcoin.because in my own opinion corrupt can only excist in government if you have a project or task they earn lot of money on that..in bitcoin you cannot earn if you didnt go in a transaction
Government hide.there transaction... bitcoin cant hide

I think the right question for this is "Can people start corruption on Bitcoin?". Bitcoin is just a Bitcoin. It is up to us how we'll use it. This will define if Bitcoin will lead to corruption or not.
It is going to happen, in fact I am surprised that I have not heard any major case yet, maybe I have not been watching the news hard enough, but it will happen and unfortunately it is going to be great for those that love corruption because even if that persons gets caught it is going to be impossible to get that money back.
