If you're interested in this technology I'd recommend you to work on Bitcoin. It scales with second layer solutions such as the Lightning Network (https://lightning.network/) and it's far more practical. If you're attracted on smart contracts, such as Ethereum's, Cardano's, still; work on Bitcoin. It's not advisable to start from a much more advanced project as a newbie in this field. It's like knowing nothing from programming and start your journey with javascript.

Here're developer's guides: https://developer.bitcoin.org/devguide/
