Airbnb confirmed that it raised another $1.5 billion in funding

Airbnb may not be pulling in as much funding as Uber, but it’s raising more than pretty much every other startup out there. First reported by the Wall Street Journal back in June, the company has confirmed that it’s raised another $1.5 billion in funding, which brings its valuation to around $25.5 billion. This means that Airbnb is now the world’s third most-valuable startup, behind Uber and Xiaomi.
