Technode reports that a person familiar with the matter disputes claims that Moonshot AI could file for a Hong Kong IPO as early as this month. The text provides no indication of an HKEX filing or a defined listing timetable, framing the development as a rebuttal of speculation rather than a company confirmation.
Moonshot AI, developer of the Kimi model, is reportedly close to a $2 billion funding round valuing it above $20 billion, with Meituan’s Long-Z Fund said to lead and China Mobile and CPE participating. If accurate, the financing would push total fundraising above $3.9 billion in under six months, reinforcing winner-take-most dynamics in China’s large-model ecosystem.
Technode reports that Moonshot AI’s Kimi K2.5 generated more revenue in the past 20 days than in all of 2025, driven by growth in global paying users and API usage. The company is also said to be raising over $700 million in a new round co-led by Alibaba, Tencent, Wuyuan Capital, and Ji’an Investment, with overseas revenue now surpassing domestic income.
Moonshot AI is reportedly expediting fundraising following the release of its Kimi K3 model, aiming to close a round at an estimated US$30 billion valuation. The source suggests the company is also considering an additional financing round as early as next month as it prepares for a planned Hong Kong IPO.
