CESS Token Set to Launch on Major Exchanges Including Binance Alpha, KuCoin & Bitget


The native utility token of the CESS Network, a DePIN-focused decentralized storage blockchain, is gearing up for a major exchange debut. CESS will be listed today on several top-tier centralized exchanges, including Binance Alpha, KuCoin, and Bitget, marking a significant step toward broader adoption.


In a recent announcement on X (formerly Twitter), Binance Alpha confirmed it will be the first platform to enable trading for CESS later today, though the exact timing remains unconfirmed. Once trading is live, eligible users on Binance can redeem Alpha Points for a portion of CESS tokens via the platform’s Alpha Events page. Details around token distribution and airdrop mechanisms are expected to go live once trading commences.


Meanwhile, KuCoin, Bitget, Gate.io, and MEXC have all scheduled CESS/USDT spot trading to begin at 10:00 AM UTC today.


Since the CESS mainnet is not yet launched, the token will initially exist as a BEP-20 asset on the BNB Smart Chain, as stated in the latest tokenomics release. Once the mainnet goes live in the coming months, BEP-20 tokens will be exchangeable 1:1 for native CESS coins via an official cross-chain bridge or token migration tool developed by the CESS team.





Tokenomics Breakdown


Following the token generation event (TGE), the total supply of CESS is capped at 10 billion tokens, with an initial circulating supply of 3.5 billion. The long-term emission model favors sustainable decentralization and ecosystem incentives:

  • 45% of total supply is allocated to mining rewards over 31 years, following a halving model every 4 years.

  • 15.5% is designated for the treasury and foundation.

  • 12.5% is reserved for core contributors and advisors, subject to long-term vesting.

  • 12% is allocated to community growth and ecosystem partnerships.

  • 10% goes to early-stage investors.

  • 5% is earmarked for marketing efforts.


What is the CESS Network?

The CESS Network (Cumulus Encrypted Storage System) is building a decentralized cloud infrastructure layer tailored for real-time, privacy-focused data storage and distribution. Powered by Substrate, CESS delivers a scalable, high-performance Layer-1 blockchain optimized for DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks) applications — especially within AI, Web3, and DeSci ecosystems.

Within this ecosystem, the CESS token serves multiple functions:

  • Paying for storage services

  • Staking by node operators

  • Incentivizing verifiers

  • Participating in decentralized governance

In December 2023, CESS raised $8 million in a Series A round led by DWF Labs, along with support from HTX Ventures, Web3 Foundation, and Infinity Ventures Crypto. The funding has been directed toward building core infrastructure, finalizing mainnet development, and accelerating adoption across AI and decentralized data sectors.
