Gambling on DonutSMP

How people gamble DonutSMP money, rigged games, Discord scams, casinos that sell coins for crypto, and how to gamble safely with Elytra Bet.

Gambling is for players 18 and over. Only gamble money you can afford to lose.

What the rules say

DonutSMP's rules have a section called "No External Gambling" [1]. It bans:

  • Mods that add gambling mechanics, betting systems or casino-style features that change the vanilla Minecraft experience [1].
  • Mods that add, create or enable gambling machines such as slot machines or roulette tables [1].
  • Using "external applications, websites, or third-party platforms" to facilitate gambling. All permitted activities have to take place through Minecraft itself [1].
  • Gambling features that go beyond what is naturally possible in vanilla Minecraft [1].
  • Using external mods, plugins or tools to get around these limits, even if the gambling features are disguised or hidden [1].

The Terms of Service also list "No external gambling" under economy and trading violations [2]. The rules do not say outright whether gambling that uses only vanilla Minecraft mechanics is allowed, and they do not name any approved gambling hosts [1]. The rules' Important Notice says: "If you feel an action is not permissible, use common sense and do not do it." Staff have final discretion on all punishments [1].

See Rules.

How people gamble DonutSMP money

  • Player-run games. Players bet on games such as paper games and elytra arrow games. Abuodee's live streams carry titles such as "ALL BETS IN ONE FLICK Papering / Elytra arrow" (November 13, 2026) and "Wagering & PVPing" (July 29, 2026) [3][4]. Some players build redstone gambling machines [5][6].
  • Casino websites and Discord servers. Some websites and Discord bots run casino games for DonutSMP money. You send money in game with /pay and get paid back the same way.

Since November 11, 2026, the sender pays a 2% tax on top of every /pay [7].

Warning: rigged games and scams

Player-run machines can be rigged. In March 2026, TrueZay uploaded "I Used RIGGED Gambling To Make Billions on DonutSMP...". In the description he says he paid a redstoner to build a rigged gambling machine and used it to scam DrDonut and other friends [5]. A May 2026 video, "DonutSMP Rigged Paper Game (No MODS)", shows a rigged paper game machine [6]. A February 2026 video advertises a "rig mod" that it says lets you "rig every single gambling method", with features for the paper game and 50/50s [8].

Casino scams in game. Video titles also mention casino scams on DonutSMP, for example "Donut SMP vs Scam Casino" (July 2025) and "i tried the casino scam... (DonutSMP)" (January 2025) [9][10].

Discord DMs and phishing. Be careful with Discord bots and strangers who DM you a code, a giveaway or a link to claim free money. Never run a sign-in /pay or type a payout name that a stranger gave you. A video titled "Exposing a DonutSmp discord scam" (August 2026) is tagged with Minecraft account scams, Discord phishing and Microsoft verification code scams [11]. Phishing for Minecraft accounts or personal information on the server or in the DonutSMP Discord server gets a permanent blacklist [1].

Casinos and real-money trading

The rules forbid exchanging in-game items or services for "real-world money, goods, services, or rewards" [1]. The Terms of Service define real-money trading as "Any exchange of Virtual Items for real-world value." They also ban buying or selling accounts, items, currency, services or access outside official DonutSMP channels [2]. In chat, promoting IRL-trading servers is banned [1]. See Money rules.

Watch out for casinos that turned into IRL-trading shops. Some casino websites and Discord servers now sell DonutSMP money for crypto. That is real-money trading under the Terms of Service, even if winnings are only paid in game [2].

A December 2025 video by TheMisterEpic says DonutSMP has "an extremely large blackmarket where you can buy anything for real money" [12]. Buying or selling DonutSMP money for real money is forbidden by the rules and the Terms of Service [1][2].

Elytra Bet

Elytra Bet is a DonutSMP casino website that never touches real money [13].

  • It uses DonutSMP in-game money only. You cannot deposit, bet or withdraw real money or crypto [13].
  • You sign in with your DonutSMP name and a /pay of a random amount between $501 and $999 that the site shows you. It does not ask for a password [13][14].
  • Deposits and withdrawals happen in game with /pay. Withdrawals are paid by the site's cashier account, usually within a minute. Very large withdrawals are checked by the team first [13][14].
  • Every bet is provably fair. You can check each result with the server seed, your client seed and the bet number [15].
  • New players get $250K on their first sign-in [13].

Elytra Bet is run by the same team as this wiki.

Safety checklist

  • Never give anyone your account. Phishing for Minecraft accounts gets a permanent blacklist [1].
  • Ignore DMs from strangers and Discord bots. Never run a sign-in /pay or type a payout name that a stranger gave you [11].
  • Remember that machines and mods can be rigged [5][6][8]. On a provably fair site you can recompute each result yourself [15].
  • Skip any casino that sells coins for crypto or cash. Buying or selling DonutSMP money for real money counts as IRL trading [1][2].
  • Count the 2% tax. The sender pays 2% on top of every /pay. Sending $100K costs $102K [7].
  • Use only Elytra Bet or games run by big streamers. Elytra Bet is provably fair and uses in-game money only [13][15].
