I have a few sources with huge information about making your own coin.

Check these links below

This one has lots of sources including ETH, Monero, and BTC, and other altcoins you also learn how to implement blockchain.

For old links you can check this one below you can start building your own by following the DIY blockchain

Do you have detailed instructions on how you can make your own coin from the source code like BTC? I want to do it for myself.

It would be easier to make an ERC-20 token on Ethereum. The advantage is that it is relatively simple and you don't have to worry about mining. Here are step-by-step instructions: https://medium.com/@business.wmacintosh/how-to-create-a-cryptocurrency-token-for-free-in-under-10-minutes-e8a05d7e31dd

If what you are after is understanding bitcoin/Bitcoin as a first step, focusing on the programming and components, the following thread mentions some seemingly useful resources and books: Study Bitcoin core source code.

The thread mentions resources such as:
https://developer.bitcoin.org/
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07NM32WGH
https://bitcoin.org/en/bitcoin-core/ (possibly still under DDOS attack currently, since I cannot reach the site)

If, on the other hand, you want to study how ERC20 tokens are created, there are some threads that point to it being fairly easy (being a token, you rely on already existing blockchain infrastructure): [BEGINNER FRIENDLY GUIDE] Launch your own TOKEN in a few simple steps!
It doesn’t go into the programming fundamentals for creating cintracts and such, but it’s a starting point to explore.

I’m sure others will chip-in with additional and better resources.
