Kimi K3 Pauses New Subscriptions Amid Surging Demand
mark_k · x · 2026-07-20
Demand for Kimi K3 has pushed @Kimi_Moonshot's existing GPU capacity to near its limits. As a result, **new subscriptions have been temporarily paused** and will resume once more compute power comes online; existing subscribers remain unaffected. Meanwhile, Kimi is splitting its memberships into a **general Kimi plan** and a separate **Kimi Code plan** to allocate compute more efficiently.
