To become a developer of cryptocurrency, you need to know about economics, technology, physics, mathematics, literature ...
Much more complicated than you might think, cryptocurrencies apply to almost every aspect of life, so you need to understand what the world needs. Developing cryptocurrencies requires an understanding of computers, algorithms, knowledge of computers, understanding, and mastery of programming languages. You also have to create a code that is innovative, optimized, and better than the previous projects.

Well, much has already been said about knowledge and skills. Those are basics. Software development without those is impossible.
However--and I think this is the most important factor-- you should try to bring something new to the table. You need to have an innovative and creative mind to develop and showcase something which has utility and worth.
Crypto projects are numbering to the thousands. The products and services of these crypto projects are reaching tens of thousands. The question now is how many of them are in actual use in real life? Only a handful. The rest are garbage, copycats, and products which are hardly applied and appreciated in real life.

Knowledge on both ends naturally. It's not like you can create a database, or a game, just because you know 3-4 programming languages no? Programming languages is basically just a medium to achieve the ending you'd really want, so it's naturally a requirement to learn on both ends. As for what programming language you'd need to learn, I doubt there's much difference between any major languages like Java, C++, Python, but if you want a list, just look it up in google.
Although our software knowledge is high, when we do not think about the sucture of Bitcoin, can our software knowledge pave the way for these thoughts, is it enough to just work on software? To be able to create something.
No, it may be a vague thing, but the will to work and improve on the structure you'd want to make is the foundation of making something, otherwise, you'd really just basically be copying and pasting other's foundation of blockchain into yours.

First, learn programming language you want to use in developing, having basic knowledge in programming is enough no need to master any programming language.
Second, is a huge knowledge on how cryptocurrency works, and focus on aspects it needs for improvements, what feature you can add to make the current software/client looks better than what it is today.
Lastly, motivation, a good developer having lots of knowledge on IT and crypto field without motivation can't do anything.

No, if you don't have knowledge about bitcoin on how it works do you think you can make a software for Bitcoin?
For me, no you will need to learn first on how it actually works before you develop software for Bitcoin. Even you have lots of knowledge of any programming languages without knowledge on Bitcoin you can't make any software that will work on Bitcoin.
If you want to learn about crypto start on Bitcoin.
Here's some source below that I think will help you to start learning related to Bitcoin development.
- Bitcoin Explained Guide
- MAstering Bitcoin
This one below must be read from the start to the end which is a big source of learning for developing bitcoin.

yes, that's true. how can you be a btc software dev if you don't have the knowledge of the topic itself? so those links are really worth to read and understand if the OP wants to pursue this route. you can't be a dev overnight, it will take time and many trials to achieve your goal. but reading is a good start. and then you can start coding and test it many times. youre looking at long hours of work here.

It depends on your ideas on creating something. Most likely if you're knowledgeable enough as a software developer you can create something by your ideas or by the ideas of others. If you don't have the idea of creating your new software then you can't make something by just the knowledge only in software development.

On the developer side, you need to be knowledgeable with programming and not that ultra-fine. You need to have that experience which you were able to work for some projects before related to crypto development or not. Those experiences that can at least show case that you know the idea and have background in development. As I understand your questions, developers are only following the plan. There's more to being a developer and that involves those people with the plan to make their own cryptocurrency with goals of what they wanna do with what they are developing.

If you want to become a crypto-currency software development you need a lot of knowledge in software development. Like other jobs, you need to be professional and skilled in your field. It's base on knowledge because how can you do well in software development if your knowledge is not enough.

Being a cryptocurrency developer is based solely on software knowledge? , Or is it based on how well we want to do, Or do they both need to be ultra fine?which do you think and why? 
I'm curious about these because I'm thinking of dedicating myself to cryptocurrency software.
Thank you for your help in advance.
