This interest led him to explore cryptocurrencies and blockchain technologies further, particularly during its in 2015. Lee actively engaged with the Ethereum community by organizing both online and offline meetup groups. He said:

"I started out as a research assistant for a professor back in school and was looking into all the different types of Fintech businesses, and chanced upon a product that utilized as a remittance tool. So, I thought it was a very different proposition compared to the other products out there, for example, like TransferWise or WesternUnion, so they're basically revamping an existing model with some innovation in the business model, but at a technical level, there was hardly any innovation, whereas Bitcoin was something that was fundamentally different. That got me interested in the technology, and I started to look deeper into and . In 2015, I became interested in , because that was also when Ethereum community was born at the . And then I got involved peripherally as a community contributor, not quite in a technical sense, but really just forming meetup groups online and offline to just be more involved in that segment..."[1]
