FTX’s Ryan Salame posts jokes on LinkedIn as he heads to prison

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. 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).

“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.

If you’re on your way to prison for fraud, I guess you might as well try to cope through humor.
