And does anyone know any similar resources for smart contract-related stuff? I know things like DeFi are becoming big now.

For that I will recommend the same author as I did before: Andreas Antonopoulos, Mastering Ethereum.

For free in github also.

When I want to find something special about Bitcoin I usually search through resources collected here: https://www.lopp.net/

There is a lot of websites presented that will be usefull for everyone: users, developers, miners, exchange owners, etc.

In particular, for developers you can visit these:

what advanced resources are out there to learn more about blockchain and cryptocurrency?

it depends on what part of it you want to learn, it is too broad.
there is bitcoin wiki (https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/) that has almost everything and is nearly up to date too.  there is developer's reference (https://bitcoin.org/en/developer-reference) which is similar but is easier to use. some of the missing parts can be found among BIPs (https://github.com/bitcoin/bips). for some things that aren't documented or not properly documented you'll have to look at the source code.
for the cryptography part you'll have to find other documentations. for example here is a simple explanation of elliptic curve cryptography https://blog.cloudflare.com/a-relatively-easy-to-understand-primer-on-elliptic-curve-cryptography/

Hi,

I have been working on a crypto project for a while now. Apart from crypto news websites and good podcasts like the Unchained /Epicenter Podcast, what advanced resources are out there to learn more about blockchain and cryptocurrency?

I've been involved in crypto for more than 5 years, and I would really like to find technical and advanced level knowledge/insight to take my understanding of the subject to the next level. Please let me know if you know of any good resources (Medium and interviews with figureheads are good but they can only go so far).
