A golden chest is a joke variant of the chest present in snapshot 23w13a_or_b. It is created by opening a normal or trapped chest while the minecraft:midas_touch vote rule is activated. Ender chests are unaffected.

Golden chests are not a separate block and thus cannot be obtained with the command /give or through the Creative inventory. To create a golden chest without minecraft:midas_touch activated, the player can use the /setblock command with a regular or trapped chest and the tag "gold": /setblock ~ ~ ~ minecraft:chest{gold:1b}, or /setblock ~ ~ ~ minecraft:trapped_chest{gold:1b}.

Opening a large chest with midas_touch changes the chest visually, but the texture is glitched. Large golden chests do not change the items inside into gold.

Golden chests only drop normal chests and cannot be obtained when mined, even when using a tool enchanted with Silk Touch.

Golden chests function similarly to normal chests. Golden trapped chests still function as trapped chests but have no red-tinted latch like regular ones.

Both types of golden chests have a random chance on every item in the chest turning into a golden item, according to the minecraft:midas_touch vote rule:

• Iron nuggets become gold nuggets.
• Raw copper and raw iron become raw gold.
• Raw copper blocks and raw iron blocks become raw gold blocks.
• Normal ore blocks become gold ore.
• Deepslate ore blocks become deepslate gold ore.
• Nether quartz ore becomes nether gold ore.
• Swords, axes, pickaxes, shovels, hoes, armor, and horse armor become golden.
• Apples become golden apples and golden apples become enchanted golden apples.
• Carrots become golden carrots.
• Melon slices become glistering melon slices.
• Rails become powered rails.
• Arrows become spectral arrows.
• Other items and blocks become gold ingots and gold blocks.

A golden chest has 27 slots of inventory space.

Golden chests open when used. To move items between the golden chest inventory and the player inventory or hotbar while the golden chest GUI is open, drag or shift-click the items. Holding and double-clicking while holding an item moves all items of the type clicked on in or out of the golden chest, to the extent that space is available for them. To exit the golden chest GUI, use the control.

Golden trapped chests can be used to detect when their inventory is accessed by players.

A golden trapped chest is inactive while not being accessed, but activates when accessed by a player. Mobs cannot access/activate a golden trapped chest, and a golden trapped chest is not activated by items moving into or out of it by droppers or hoppers.

While active, a golden trapped chest:

• powers any adjacent redstone dust, including beneath the golden trapped chest, to a power level equal to the number of players accessing the golden trapped chest (maximum 15);
• powers any adjacent redstone repeaters facing away from the golden trapped chest to power level 15;
• strongly powers any full solid opaque block (stone, dirt, block of gold, etc.) beneath the golden trapped chest to a power level equal to the number of players accessing the golden trapped chest (maximum 15);
• activates any adjacent mechanism components, including above or below, such as pistons, redstone lamps, etc. Due to hoppers being locked by redstone activation, hoppers below a golden trapped chest do not take items from it while it is open.

An active golden trapped chest does not power any adjacent redstone comparators facing away from it. Redstone comparators can measure the block state of the golden trapped chest, producing a power level from 0 to 15 proportional to how full the golden trapped chest is. Anything else powered by an active trapped chest (including a block beneath it) can power redstone comparators normally.

Issues relating to "Golden Chest" are not maintained on the bug tracker because it is an April Fools' joke, and is therefore not in the newest stable version or snapshot. Issues reported there are closed as "Invalid".
