On July 16, 2026, Moonshot launched its new KIMI K3 model, making K3·Max and K3 Cluster·Max available to logged-in users. The model is expected to be officially announced soon. With 200–300 billion parameters, KIMI K3 is the largest AI model in China. On-chain data indicates its performance is comparable to Anthropic’s Opus 4.8, which is estimated to have 150–200 billion parameters. New token listings on exchanges may reflect rising interest in AI-driven blockchain projects.

Huo Xing Cai Jing reports that on July 16, the Moonshot AI official website updated its new model, KIMI K3. After logging in, users can now see two versions: K3·Max and K3 Cluster·Max, with the company expecting an official announcement soon. Previously, insiders indicated that the model has a parameter scale of 2 to 3 trillion, making it China’s largest AI model to date and approaching the capabilities of models developed by the leading U.S. AI lab Anthropic. This advancement suggests that the gap between China and the U.S. in the field of cutting-edge artificial intelligence is steadily narrowing. As the benchmark, Anthropic has not officially disclosed the specific parameter scale of its models. However, industry experts generally estimate that its Opus model has approximately 1.5 to 2 trillion parameters.
