The provocative claims by cryptography researcher Darkhorse rekindled debate over whether Ripple Labs is quietly circumventing a federal court injunction through a $300 million XRP Treasury vehicle involving Asia-based mobility company Webus International Ltd.

“This new Treasury setup will allow @Ripple to bypass injunctions legally and cleanly,” Darkhorse declared in a June 4th post on X. He claims that Ripple has discovered “the only route left by the judge.” “It’s not just smart,” he wrote. “It’s based on design.”

The setup in question was revealed in a recent Form 6-K filing by Webus. This outlined the creation of the XRP Ministry of Finance, managed by Samara Alpha, a registered investment advisor. The program delegates Samara full control of XRP up to $300 million under a staged, regulated structure. The filing stops at stating where XRP comes from, but Darkhorse insists that the intention is clear. Ripple claims that XRP can legally be sold to intermediaries in sections like Samara.

Is Ripple bypassing the XRP injunction?

Veteran XRP commentator Jay Nisbett pushed back. “I don’t think any of this is clever or bypassing anything — it’s just an adoption,” he replied. Nisbett argued that Ripple and Webus are not partners, that Webus is just getting XRP, like other participants in the secondary market, and that the assets themselves are “deemed not security in this context.” He added that holding XRP on the balance sheet is not the same as triggering a securities transaction.

Darkhorse issued a sharp rebuttal. “You’re missing the mechanism,” he told Nisbet, laying out his arguments in four parts. First, he emphasized that Webus had not only announced its intention to purchase in the open market. “Webus, submitted via Form 6-K, has publicly released the $300 million XRP Treasury Department, but will not simply buy it in the open market. They delegated control to Samara Alpha, a SEC registered investment advisor, under a staged, regulated structure. ”

Second, he argued that the central issue is Ripple’s incompetent inability to sell directly to the institutions, where intermediaries appear. “Routing is done through a detained SEC registration manager, rather than passing XRP over investors.

Third, Dark Horse challenged Nisbett’s claim that there is no relationship between Ripple and Webs. “Check out Ripplenet Corridors and the previous Asia-Pacific Mobility Pilot Case,” he writes. “The relationship between Ripple’s network and XRPL’s liquidity route goes back several years ago. Just because it wasn’t front page news doesn’t mean it didn’t happen.”

Finally, he challenged the notion that Webus’ XRP Holdings is merely passive. “‘Just keeping the balance sheet’ is not an automatic exemption,” he argued. “This is a development by the Ministry of Finance, not custody of idols. The fact that Webus constituted this through a delegated SEC manager states that it considers the institutional risk of XRP as a legal factor.”

He said frankly: “This is not dumping tokens in exchange. It creates an institutional conduit that complies while sailing around the bottleneck of the injunction.”

Despite the detailed structure and second-plane components, the varnish bet remained motionless. “No, I get what you’re saying… I don’t agree that the mechanism is an unexpected event,” he wrote. “It’s the natural maturation of the market, and the market responds to legal hurdles, as the market always has.”

Ripple is tied to Judge Torres’ 2024 permanent injunction. This prohibits direct institutional XRP sales unless registered – there is debate over whether Webus structures constitute an indirect rotation or legal evolution. The SEC has not yet commented, and the court recently denied the party’s request to destroy the injunction, calling it “procedurally inappropriate.”

At the time of press, the XRP traded for $2.1989.
