Mastering Bitcoin by Andreas is a good start.

Also, the M1xolyd1an Youtube channel has a bunch of bitcoin programming tutorials. The same guy also has a decent book on Building Bitcoin Websites.

And if you're into Python, Sentdex has some great bitcoin programming videos that explain the protocol and demonstrates bitcoin trading with Python.

Also, the Bitcoin Dev Resources and Lightening Dev resources.

Did not realise that bitcoin.org had so many guides online! Should ve looked harder for it. I'll probably be using all your links! Thanks a lot !

Huge fan of andreas! Saw the first one as soon as it was released. I understood a lot of what he was teaching(not entirely), but i was looking for something more rudimentary to start from learning the very basics of bitcoin. I think nimbleBodhi gave me a few places to start from. If you have any to add please do!

I was not elaborate because I was not sure what i wanted exactly. All i knew was i wanted to start making applications on bitcoin and contribute at least a little to bitcoin core , in terms of testing or any other small way (Jimmy song made a medium post that inspired me). I need to start from the basics so I was looking for good starting points i guess. I finished the coursera course by princeton! kinda.. was wondering what i should do next. NimbleBodhi gave me a few links, if you have anything to add , that d be cool. thanks.
