A Rust Bitcoin Vanity Address Generator

This Bitcoin vanity address generator is a simple, not particular optimized or efficient program to produce vanity addresses. The main program is single threaded and simply generates random private keys and computes addresses for those keys until a particular prefix is met. To make better use of computing resources, a python script is provided which will run multiple instances of the vanity address generator.
