Lee Jung-hoon
WatchFormer chairman of the Bithumb exchange
Lee Jung-hoon chaired Bithumb during the years it was Korea's largest exchange, through the 2017 boom, a major hack and the country's shift to real-name trading accounts.
Charged in South Korea with fraud over an alleged $70m loss connected to the BXA token and the aborted sale of Bithumb, and acquitted in 2023; the appeal position should be verified. No findings against him stand at present.
