Yah, money laundering through crypto casino is one of the silliest things, but when illegal income, especially fast illegal income, fully captures the mind, people are not expected to behave in a smart way... So all the types of laundering are to be employed
All money launderers are employed?
What do you mean by that sentence?
No one employs money laundering because they are individuals who use crypto casinos for money laundering because they want to avoid or eliminate evidence of crimes such as corruption and embezzlement of funds so that they are not charged in court if the case is reported to the authorities or law enforcement.
There have been many cases of laundering via crypto and it's no longer a secret if crypto is used to launder money because the government or law enforcement agencies cannot see purely the money that goes into crypto assets.
One of the uses of KYC that is enforced by casinos or crypto trading platforms is also one of avoiding people who commit money laundering crimes.

I think he means that the people who are doing the actual money laundering are usually employed by the rich criminals who made the money in the first place. The rich bosses are not spending hours every day on online casino to launder their money. This is nothing new, before the online gambling boom the money was laundered at the local casinos and the authorities knew about. I still remember when I was younger we had slot machines in most bars and it was always the same people sitting there all evening. Only later I found out that they were from organised criminal organisations and would launder money. It's pretty clever of them, when you play slots you know you get on average 95% of your money back. When playing roulette and play only black/red you win 48.5% of the time. So your losses are quite small if you okay long enough. It's nothing new of the online gambling industry, this has been done for a long period of time and should not be used as argument to ban online casinos.
A person or group of criminal organizations will choose to run away with the proceeds of the crime rather than having to work with rich criminals to launder money.
Both have the risk of becoming suspects, they still choose to run away with all the money and can become rich people.
It makes no sense for criminals to hire someone to launder money.
From experience, it is possible that a group of people who organize a criminal organization are not employed by other people, but it could be that the money is the result of their own crimes.
