Following the criminal blow-up of cryptocurrency exchange FTX, many of the company's executives were found guilty of various crimes, including fraud and conspiracy to commit such acts. Ryan Salame, former co-CEO of FTX Digital Markets, begins a 7.5-year sentence for fraud today, but before he does so, he posted one of the most ridiculous LinkedIn posts of all time. (And I've seen some wild posts lately).

“I am excited to announce that I am accepting a new position as an inmate at FCI Cumberland!” Salameh wrote on LinkedIn. Below the boilerplate text is a colorful cartoon of people dancing around cupcakes.
If you're going to go to jail for fraud, you might try to use humor to deal with it.
