After the criminal implosion of the crypto exchange FTX, many of the company’s executives have been found guilty on various counts of fraud or conspiracy to commit such acts.
Former FTX Executive Heads to Prison, But Not Without One Final LinkedIn Post
Ryan Salame, the former co-CEO of FTX Digital Markets, is starting his seven-and-a-half-year fraud sentence today, but not before posting an all-time absurd LinkedIn post (and we’ve seen some wild posts lately).
Salame’s Absurd LinkedIn Farewell
“I’m happy to share that I’m starting a new position as Inmate at FCI Cumberland!” Salame wrote on LinkedIn. Beneath the boilerplate text, there’s a colorful cartoon of people dancing around a cupcake.
Coping with Humor
If you’re on your way to prison for fraud, I guess you might as well try to cope through humor.
