Meet Keshav, Senior Writer at NewsBTC
Keshav has been an integral part of the NewsBTC team since June 14, 2021. With years of writing experience under his belt, he has evolved from a hobbyist to a professional freelancer, ultimately finding his niche in the cryptocurrency industry.
Educational Background
Academically, Keshav boasts a bachelor’s degree in Physics from the esteemed University of Delhi (DU). Initially, he embarked on this academic journey with the intention of pursuing a career in Physics. However, the COVID-19 pandemic brought about significant changes, leading to a shift in his career trajectory. Online classes due to the pandemic allowed Keshav the time to explore other passions, eventually steering him towards writing.
Transition to Writing
What started as a quest to earn some extra cash quickly turned into a full-fledged career. Keshav’s knack for writing landed him real projects, and there was no looking back. The joy of being able to write for a living was the fulfillment of a long-cherished dream.
Continued Passion for Physics
Keshav completed his Physics degree in 2022, but his passion for the subject remains undiminished. He plans to return to university to pursue a master’s degree in Physics, driven by personal interest rather than professional aspirations.
Fascination with Blockchain
Since delving into the world of cryptocurrency in 2020, Keshav has been captivated by the concepts of blockchain. His articles for NewsBTC often incorporate on-chain analysis, a topic he finds particularly intriguing. With a scientific background, Keshav values clarity and consistency, making it a point to explain the indicators he discusses in detail to enhance reader understanding.
Hobbies and Interests
Outside of his professional life, Keshav is an avid football enthusiast, both as a player and a spectator. He also has a keen interest in anime and video games. His preference leans towards single-player adventures, with EA FC (formerly FIFA) being the only online game he actively participates in. His dedication to the game has earned him a semi-pro status, with regular participation in tournaments and occasional prize winnings.
Language Skills and Early Gigs
His love for anime and games led Keshav to self-learn Japanese, enabling him to enjoy untranslated content. This skill also proved useful during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, as he undertook Japanese-to-English translation jobs to make ends meet.
Fitness and Well-being
Keshav is also passionate about fitness, incorporating agility and acceleration workouts into his routine to complement his football activities. Alongside, he follows a traditional strength-based program at the gym to maintain overall fitness.
