Meet Keshav: A Senior Writer at NewsBTC
Keshav has been a cornerstone of the NewsBTC team since June 14, 2021. With a profound passion for writing, he has transformed his hobby into a thriving career. Over the years, he has explored several niches, including fiction, but his longest and most committed journey has been within the cryptocurrency industry.
Educational Background and Career Shift
Keshav holds a bachelor’s degree in Physics from the prestigious University of Delhi (DU), one of India’s leading educational institutions. Initially, he embarked on this academic journey with aspirations of building a career in Physics. However, the global pandemic of COVID-19 triggered an unexpected pivot. As universities transitioned to online classes, Keshav found himself with additional free time, which he used to explore other interests.
A Serendipitous Foray into Writing
What began as a quest for some extra income quickly evolved into a fulfilling career. Keshav’s writing journey took a significant turn when he started attracting clients with real projects, marking the beginning of his professional writing career. Writing, a long-time passion, transformed from a dream into a reality as he began earning a living through his words.
Continuing Passion for Physics
Although Keshav completed his Physics degree in 2022, his love for the subject remains strong. He envisions returning to academia to pursue a master’s degree in Physics, not necessarily for career advancement, but to satisfy his intellectual curiosity and passion for the field.
A Fascination with Blockchain
Keshav’s interest in blockchain technology began in 2020, and he has been captivated ever since. He finds the intricacies of on-chain analysis particularly intriguing, which is why many of his articles for NewsBTC incorporate this aspect. With his scientific background, Keshav aims to explain complex concepts clearly and consistently, ensuring his readers gain a deeper understanding of the topics he discusses.
Hobbies and Interests
Beyond the world of writing and cryptocurrencies, Keshav is an avid football enthusiast, both as a player and as a spectator. His love for the game extends to video games, with a particular fondness for single-player adventures. EA FC (formerly FIFA) is the only online game where he actively participates, achieving a semi-professional status by regularly competing in tournaments and occasionally winning prize money.
Keshav’s passion for anime and gaming led him to self-learn Japanese, enabling him to enjoy untranslated media. This skill also proved valuable during the early days of the COVID pandemic, when he took on Japanese-to-English translation jobs.
Fitness and Well-being
Keshav is deeply committed to fitness, incorporating agility and acceleration workouts into his routine due to their importance in football. Additionally, he follows a strength-based gym program to maintain overall body fitness.
In summary, Keshav is a multifaceted individual whose journey from Physics to writing has been marked by passion and adaptability. His contributions to NewsBTC and his diverse range of interests make him a valuable asset to the team and an intriguing figure in the cryptocurrency community.
