since you must know your way around computing already why not dig through some of the code of open source wallets available? there's more than a few.

A couple of the biggest bitcoin wallets - https://github.com/bitpay/copay

https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum


the biggest ethereum wallet

https://github.com/MyEtherWallet


the most widely used hardware wallet, plus this one does multiple coins too.

https://github.com/trezor

you might pick up some stuff you're familiar with already.

I would recommend working on the waves platform. For inexperienced people you can make projects to begin the introduction to this world. I give you an example of a wallet created for the web I work. It is not great quality but everything works perfectly wallet and market.

You're probably majorly trading security for convenience there. I wouldn't trust any wallet that ran as a browser plugin/extension.

Bingo

I like Jaxx but the private key used to encrypt the config file escaped into the wild because they hard coded it into the chrome
extension and people found it and the same key also worked on .exe type wallets too.

Exodus also has it faults so always run from pen-sticks and better still run from Linux because microsoft is just a remote terminal
these days and we are not even allowed to stop let alone uninstall new programs that Microsoft now force feeds us.

Forget 51% attack on Bitcoin because it will go down if Microsoft wanted to take it down

Thank you.

Would there be a specific computer language to learn?

i'm not trying to get around doing my own reading.

Honestly i'm trying to sign up for one or two courses and
I am doing that as soon as I find out a course that would
be beneficial to enroll in
Bitcoin Core (the reference implementation of Bitcoin) is fully written in C++. But you're free to use whatever language you want to use, it's personal preference. You can find examples for almost every language on Github, just search for "Bitcoin wallet" and select a filter to your preferred language.

I don't think there is a formal course for this but i guess it's all in the cryptography, formal schooling is necessary but still, it's the experience that will give the best knowledge. Read, observe and join some groups, ask a question and join the discussion to get more ideas.

Hi.
I think that the best start would be the official wiki: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Main_Page
There you can find info from how the protocol works to source code of most wallets.
