By the way, it runs fast and nice, nice project!

I updated it to record keys already used and save sessions.....that may work for you

That is strange. There are still a few bugs I guess but I've not seen in count backwards yet.

That's a good idea, thanks!

You can replicate the problem with counting quickly by changing to this line:
total_keys_generated.value += 10000
After some time the values go below 0.
I hope you can solve it since it's a nice Bitcoin lottery player :-) Many thanks in advance!

It has to do with Python's multiprocessing. the Value type doesn't have built-in atomic operations, so concurrent updates may lead to incorrect results.
