Ryan Salame
(pronounced like the witch trials, not the deli meat)
Former FTX Exec. Current Federal Inmate. Not a lawyer, learned that the hard way.
Going through the FTX experience taught me a valuable lesson: almost no one knows what they’re talking about, least of all the people you would most expect to. I refuse to be one of those people, so I’ve made it my mission not to be.
Here’s a small taste of what I’ve been up to for the past year: perhaps the greatest educational series ever created, posted here for free! Created by Claude, edited by ChatGPT, perfected by Salame. Spot an issue or have a suggestion? Email courses@ryansalame.com.
