Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJinwoo Lee is a blockchain-focused technology executive and entrepreneur with 12 years of experience building trading, payments, and validator infrastructure. As CEO and Co‑Founder of 1XP and founder of 0base.vc, he leads teams that stabilize and independently validate multiple blockchain networks, blending operator rigor with investor insights. Previously CTO at Coinone, he scaled core exchange systems for one of South Korea’s prominent crypto platforms, and earlier co-founded Bitple to pioneer Bitcoin payments and derivatives locally. His background spans hands-on development—from Bitcoin prop trading and mining tools to enterprise backup solutions—giving him a rare combination of product, ops, and low-level systems expertise. Based in Seongnam-si, he leverages deep technical roots from Hanyang University to bridge engineering execution with strategic ecosystem building. Notably, his career repeatedly emphasizes trust-minimized validation: he builds systems that verify blockchains rather than relying on them.
