DonutSMP Crate Keys Guide
Crate keys function as a virtual balance similar to shards or money rather than physical in-game items. Keys can be obtained with shards at the in-game shard shop or purchased with real money from the web store at donutsmp.net. All key types including Common, Prime, Gold, Amethyst, and Crimson can be purchased from the web store for real money.

See the shards page for shard shop prices.
Strategy
Common Keys should be opened immediately with no opportunity cost as free keys equal pure profit. Premium Keys including Prime and Crimson should be opened during special events if better drop rates exist or saved for when players need specific items. Amethyst Keys should be opened if players want shard boosters. See amethyst items for expected value and trading strategies.
