(Reuters) - A group of FTX customers from outside the United States have asked a U.S. bankruptcy judge to keep their names secret during the cryptocurrency exchange's bankruptcy case, saying that revealing their identities could expose them to identity theft and other scams.

Bankrupt companies typically reveal the names and amounts of debt held by their creditors, including individual customers.
