ChainCatcher reported that according to Reuters, U.S. bankruptcy judge John Dorsey in Wilmington, Delaware, ruled that FTX could permanently remove the names of individual customers from its bankruptcy filing. The decision was made after hearing testimony from FTX that "disclosing customer names would put them at risk," even if other identifying information such as individual customers' email addresses was kept confidential.

In addition, John Dorsey also authorized FTX to temporarily remove the names of companies and institutional investors from its customer list, but FTX must make new requests within 90 days. Dorsey said that institutional customers do not face the same risks as individuals, but if FTX decides to sell its cryptocurrency trading business as a whole, the names of institutional customers may be valuable assets to it.
