I would like to work on Bitcoin and Lightning, should I learn Rust? I am familiar with Python and JavaScript.
Probably yes since everybody loves Rust now and it is good, but don't become an annoying Rust shill.
Languages don't matter very much though. You could also learn Scala or Go and that would be good.
Actually languages do matter in the sense that languages without strict types and smart compilers are a pain in everybody's ass.
Alternative answer: if you haven't yet, do something useful with what you know before trying to learn new languages.
