Python library for bitcoin / altcoins

[ekiro]

Is there a python package that is a wrapper for the bitcoind / client that can generate addresses with requested amounts so I can build my own payment system?  And would it work for alt coins as well? Litecoin, xmr, zcash etc. any recommendations?

I think python-bitcoinlib is the most popular option for Bitcoin in python. For altcoins, you'll have to choose other libraries. I think you can use the same for Bitcoin forks, like Litecoin, but I'm not totally sure.

For Monero, you can use this: https://pypi.org/project/monero/.

Be careful that exact behavior of certain RPC call may be different between Bitcoin Core and it's forks intended for altcoin.
