As of June 2026, Elytra prices on Donut SMP are around 500 million in-game Money, making them the most valuable item. Elytra is the endgame goal for nearly every player, and you have to grind for months to afford one.
Let’s review both in-game Money and real-world trading prices for Elytra, all possible ways to get it, and a shortcut to get it ASAP.
Why are Elytras so expensive on Donut SMP?
Elytra is expensive, as you can travel large distances quickly, allowing you to locate massive stashes containing valuable items like Netherite, Spawners, and possibly other Elytras. Additionally, Elytras have multiplied their value since last year, making them the most profitable source of income.
Scarcity controls the market. New Elytras enter circulation only when fresh End terrain becomes accessible, and that doesn’t happen often enough to meet player demand.
Players who already own Elytras rarely sell unless they’re cashing out or flipping for a profit, which keeps the available supply low. Elytra is the best investment in Donut SMP, and prices are trending upward. As more players join, fewer unlooted End Ships remain in accessible areas.
How much does an Elytra cost on Donut SMP right now?
As of now, Elytras’ prices are climbing from around 300 million in March to over 500 million in June 2026.
Donut SMP Elytra in-game price
Here are the current reference in-game Money values calculated by the community.
- Donut.Auction: 514 million
- Donut SMP Auction House: 550 million
NOTE: Prices should dip immediately after expansions when new End terrain opens up due to increased supply, then gradually climb back up as the new areas are looted and supply gets limited again.
Donut SMP Elytra real-money price
On the Eldorado.gg marketplace, Elytra is one of the most popular items, of course. As of now, there are 72+ Elytras listed in the marketplace.
| Item | Price range | Stock quantity | Trading offers |
|---|---|---|---|
| Elytra | $25–$45 | 72+ | Check on Eldorado.gg |
Let’s calculate how much it is in terms of in-game Money. At an average rate of $0.045/M, the Elytras on Eldorado.gg sell for 555M–1B. But then again, Elytras are extremely limited, and you can’t always get one in-game even if you have enough Money.
NOTE: Donut SMP in-game prices are measured in server Money, while Eldorado listings are real-money marketplace offers from sellers. The two markets do not always convert perfectly due to stock and community sentiment.
How to get an Elytra on Donut SMP
You’ve got four main paths to get an Elytra. It’s a choice between grinding, trading, and buying.

Elytra Full Enchant
1. Find one in the End
Elytras spawn naturally inside End Ships, which float next to certain End Cities after you’ve defeated the Ender Dragon. Use /rtp end to teleport into the End dimension and start your search.
Most accessible End loot has already been claimed by other players, so you’ll likely need to travel beyond the fixed RTP range to find untouched ships.
2. Buy from the Auction House
The Auction House (/ah) offers the fastest route to an Elytra if someone’s actively selling one. Type /ah search elytra to filter the listings and see what’s available at the moment. Valuable items move quickly because many players are usually watching the same listings.
If the Auction House is empty, check back during peak hours when more players are online and actively trading. Evening hours in North American and European time zones tend to see the most activity.
3. Try /orders if listings are empty
The Orders system lets you post a buy request when the Auction House doesn’t have what you’re looking for. Open /orders, set your offer price, then wait for a seller to accept.
Most sellers prefer the Auction House because it’s faster and reaches more buyers. Orders can take days or weeks to fill, depending on the current supply of Elytras.
Other buyers might post higher offers, pushing your request down the queue. You can always adjust your price upward if you’re not getting any offers.
4. Trade through Discord or a marketplace
You can negotiate manually through the official DonutSMP Discord market channels. Sellers post what they have, you DM them to work out a price, and if you both agree, you meet in-game to complete the trade.
The Discord market lacks escrow protection, so you’re relying on the other person’s reputation and word. Review their trade history, ask for screenshots of the items, and watch for warning signs, such as pressure to pay upfront or deals that seem too good to be true.
Alternatively, you can find trading offers on a trusty marketplace with built-in protection. Eldorado.gg connects buyers with verified sellers for Donut SMP items, including Elytras, spawners, and currency.
When do Elytra prices drop?
Border expansions periodically reveal new End terrain, giving everyone a window to hunt for new Elytras before the area is completely looted. That’s when Elytra prices can drop as the market becomes saturated.
