I like the idea of "cradle" Jenny, my thought was either "Home" or "Womb"

I like the idea of "cradle" Jenny, my thought was either "Home" or "Womb" Oh home is good.... It was mentioned on FB page by Nathan S. that 10 (1's and 0's) is 2 in binary....2 keys... and if it does refer to tetractys, then maybe a Diamond... Baseball Diamond and Home base.... Which now we have a 'Glove' reference....hmmmm....

Ooooh, going on the baseball reference... maybe it has something to do with the word "Mitt" although I'm not sure where the second part of the stanza would fit in with this either.

If the piece "will call a place", wouldn't we be looking for a phone numbers which is 10 digits?

The first key is quite standard Ten cuts, ten pins and turn But the key is split in three And must be put together first
Piece number one will call a place That fits you like a glove For nothing is as strong or fawning As a mother’s love
Another thing that comes to mind is--- ET calls Home.....and then we do have a reference to a 'Glove' (home base/baseball)....

Keeping with the music theme a doorbell or door chimes would call a place that fits you like a glove: home

Maybe the stanzas work more like a map or a navigation tree for a website. If we’re thinking “home” for this one, it could be in reference to the homepage or landing page of a site and then the stanzas could direct from there.

going on my theory that the 3 pieces of the key are a web address
WWW
Now does that look like the fingers of a glove to you?

I think whoever gets the website or first key first, should have an easy time with the 2nd key.

I think I am very close to a solution to the first half of this hunt.
If I am correct then the three pieces are a website. (xxx.yyyy.zz)
I have the xxxx.yy part of the web address I think. and I know that domain was registered fairly recently not long before this hunt first appeared. I dont have the xxx. I am pretty certain that it is not WWW if I am right. Also the xxx is not HOME if my hunch is right
Now is there any tech guru's out there?
that can tell us more about DNS and how web addresses work?

More power to you if you're right, efanton. Personally...I don't think key 1 is a website url. If it is, then Lukas' comment on the video page isn't accurate.
He said, "...there are two "keys" which are pieces of information that are used to unlock the chest, whose location is also alluded to in the riddle."
So the keys are used to unlock the chest. He didn't say they are used to find the chest.
Also, the end of the riddle has: "Then with your newfound knowledge You must travel through black flame..."
If key 1 was a website address, why would he need to tell us that we have to travel through black flame after we figure out key 1 and key 2? We would just need to type in that address.
That's how I read it at least. But I'm happy for you to prove me wrong by claiming the $1000.

On another note, his choice of the word fawning is a little unusual.
I googled the definition of fawn, and it turns out it comes from the latin word fetus.
Which is another reason why I think womb is what we're after.
Of course, this could just be a coincidence.

efanton, if you could look up when the domain was registered, what happens when you go to that domain? What kind of a home page do you see?
