Polymarket opens Kimi (Moonshot AI) IPO market: $3B raise at $50B valuation rumored
Polymarket · x · 2026-09-10
Polymarket launched a prediction market on when Moonshot AI, the developer of Kimi, will IPO — pricing just 31% by end of 2026, but 56% and 71% by March and June 2027.
Per the market description: Moonshot's July 2026 launch of Kimi K3, a 2.8-trillion-parameter open-weight model with a 1M-token context window, delivered competitive benchmarks against U.S. frontier systems, drove annualized revenue to $300M and triggered subscription pauses from surging demand. The company has restructured into a joint-stock form, filed confidentially on September 3, and reportedly targets roughly $3B in proceeds at a $50B valuation in a Hong Kong IPO.
