I recently came across CESS Network, though yet to be on exchanges, they seem to present a good project, and it is also a layer 1 project.
What do you guys think?

Just looking at Cess Network chart, and it tells you everything. A competent L1 project would never be dumped so hard like that. it has no users, and purposely as for money grabber only.
It went from 0.0075 to the 0.0025, it's literally 65% loss in a few days. Enough to conclude this is another shit token.
