>You just need to be able to get some millions of dollars on your 2.5 billion self-valuation

Mathematically speaking you just need to get someone to give you a single dollar in exchange for 1/2500000000 of 100% ownership, meaning that 100% is theoretically worth $2.5 billion.

Mathematically yes -- but for the valuation to have any meaning it should refer to a significant enough percentage.
