Hey, is there a Python library that acts as a wrapper for the bitcoind/client? I need something that can create addresses with specified amounts so I can set up my own payment system. Also, does it support altcoins like Litecoin, XMR, Zcash, etc.? Any suggestions?

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.
