Bobby Lee
Co-founder and CEO of BTC China, later BTCC, a Hong Kong Roundtable signatory, and Charlie Lee's brother.
The wiki's angle: the Lee brothers sit on both sides of the fork story, one running the biggest Chinese exchange at the Hong Kong Roundtable, the other running the oldest surviving Bitcoin code fork.[2][4]
BTCC
Wikipedia says BTCC was founded in 2011 by Bobby Lee, Yang Linke and Huang Xiaoyu as BTC China, initially a part-time project for Lee, who became CEO when it incorporated in 2013[1]. Wikipedia says it became the largest cryptocurrency exchange by volume globally in November 2013[1]. See BTCC.
Hong Kong Roundtable
The February 2016 Roundtable statement lists Bobby Lee as CEO of BTCC and Samson Mow as its COO[2]. BTCC also appears among the New York Agreement signatories in May 2017[3].
Brother of Charlie Lee
On S15 E34 Charlie Lee said he would be on a Consensus panel “with my brother Bobby”[4]. In the same episode he recommended funded Ballet wallets as gifts and said “Bobby can't steal coins from Ballet wallets”[5].
