As a seasoned crypto investor with a knack for following the twists and turns of the industry, I find myself empathizing with Ryan Salame’s current predicament. The dog bite incident, though seemingly trivial, has put a wrench in his plans and potentially impacted his health. While I may not share his political affiliations, I do hope that the surgeon treating him is indeed impartial and focused solely on ensuring his recovery.
Ryan Salame, who used to be a joint CEO at FTX Digital Markets, has asked for postponement of his jail term commencement due to health concerns.
Salame’s legal representatives have petitioned the court to postpone his voluntary surrender from October 11th to December 7th, so he can recuperate from wounds inflicted by a dog attack during the summer months.
Ryan Salame’s team kindly asks the Court to extend the surrender date for Mr. Salame at the Bureau of Prisons (BOP), moving it from October 11, 2024, to December 7, 2024, so that he can receive ongoing medical treatment recommended by his doctor due to injuries sustained on June 29, 2024.
Ryan Salame’s lawyer wrote
According to reports, the dog bite necessitates continuous care, a point that his lawyers claim warrants delaying the proceedings.
I was bitten on my face by a dog, but it’s important to clarify that it wasn’t the dog’s fault. All I can think now is that I hope the surgeon performing my operation isn’t a Democrat and doesn’t know about my Republican leanings.

Salame’s sentencing
In my experience, I found myself caught up in the legal system for seven years and five months due to my involvement with an unregulated digital asset exchange platform and questionable political donations – both of which were against the law during my tenure at FTX.
This demand is linked to Salame’s wider legal conflict. He has found himself embroiled in criminal allegations stemming from the downfall of FTX. Salame was one of the significant players within the exchange, although he chose not to take the stand during the high-profile trial of FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried.
Previously this year, as part of his agreement in the plea bargain, Salame consented to give up approximately $6 million worth of possessions, which included a restaurant located in Massachusetts.
