Meet an Earner with @AnkushSantra

In our Meet an Earner interview series, we ask real life web3 earners about their journey, experiences and insights on earning with web3.

We recently connected with Swash user Ankush. He shared some of his experiences using Swash, his entry into their ecosystem and how he is currently utilizing the Swash App in everyday life.

Tell us a little about yourself?

My name is Ankush. I am from India. I am a student, and I do some part-time hustling. Also, I am a full-time Swashbuckler 😆.

How did you learn about Swash and when did you start using it? 

I first found Swash in an article on Publish0x. At that time, I was trying to switch my career from astronomy to a computer science-related branch, preferably blockchain. After reading, I was amazed by what the team was doing. I tried to find everything I could to learn more about Swash, from Streamr blogs to their Telegram group. 

The community was extremely supportive, which helped me learn more about it. 

What do you like about Swash? 

There’s lots to say, but in a nutshell: 

1. Amazing product: Swash is adding value by encouraging its users to be the masters of their data. Thus, it helps us uplift from a mere product to a real human, generating value. 
2. Passive income: Everybody loves passive income, right? 
3. Amazing team: The team is accessible everywhere. You can even chat with the CEO. Fully doxed. Plus, they are really amazing in terms of innovation. 
4. Amazing community: The community around Swash has been very supportive from the very beginning.

How often do you use Swash? Where do you use it? 

I use Swash every day. Being a computer science student, my eyes are glued to the computer screen for 6-7 hours daily. And Swash runs quite well in the background and helps me stack $SWASH tokens. 

I use it on my laptop.

Roughly how much of their token do you earn per week or month? 

Never tried to track it. No matter how much Swash pays me, it will always be greater than 0. 

Plus, Swash has a referral campaign. It’s difficult for me to keep track of everything.

Where else are you earning on Web3? 

I tried to dip my feet into this web3 world where your actions equate to money, but Swash was the first and the last one to this date. 

I am not a fan of games, so web3 games were a no for me. I was always a fan of HIVE but never started. I might look for more avenues to dip my feet deeper.

Thanks Ankush, good luck in your future earning!
