1: Does token swapping inside the site require seperate exchange license and it's that harder to come by?
2: How do you require starting capital for house bank? And can you get any kind of insurance for it?
3. How do you spot laundered money, and accounts involved in money laundering? For example if i loan money from someone who has been using mixers, or they are otherwise linked to shady sources, will you freeze my account or is there a rule that how many links can my account can have to the possible laundered money account?

#1. I'm not familiar with this practice so I can't say anything about it.
#2. In most cases you have an already established operator investing into a "satellite" brand, that satellite brand is operated by a completely new team that was initially pitching the idea. So let us say that you and your friends are really good at managing other people's casino departments (e.g. you work for Bet365 or Stake), you've already outgrew the positions available within those companies, so you decide to open up your own casino that has some special marketing formula, you would then pitch your idea to operators who would be willing to open up a satellite brand. Sometimes even platform providers or game providers decide to act as investors, and you obviously have a lot of crypto exchange investors. If you would like to connect with these people, you would need to attend conferences and mingle around igaming events.
#3. Uf, also a complicated issue. The money laundering matrix is huge and can spot it from miles away, but although it's a smart little tool, I assure you that people who launder money are usually very, very stupid. Last time I had to deal with an issue the gentleman opened up three accounts under e-mails like "name.surname@gmail.com" + "surname.surname@gmail.com" and "namesky.surnamesky@gmail.com" under the same IP address, and claimed that those accounts aren't his, although it was obvious by just looking at the mails that it's the same person. But keep in mind that not every individual casino does the money laundering check, it's on a group basis. So if 1000 casinos have the same platform provider (SoftSwiss), the platform provider checks the players on a group level, with group level data, and then flags them. With that we can spot a money launderer even before he deposits on our casino, because he has a track record on other casinos.

Here are my questions:

1. Why most of the casinos that run poker games have most countries in the ban list?
2. How those casinos host their site which type of web hosting services they prefer to use?
3. Can you also tell me that how powerful VPS machines those casinos need when they have more than 1000's of concurrent players?
4. Is the KYC data of the customers safe on the online casinos? I mean won't they share it with third parties for profit?
5. How do casinos find scammers and hackers who wins by finding bugs in the games or casino's web applications?

#1. It's extremely hard to find a reputable poker provider, like, really hard. Pokerstars is dominating here and there's nothing that we can do about it. Because of that you'll not see that many casinos with live poker games.
#2. It's usually offshore dedicated servers with cloudflare, DDOS attacks and similar are common things so you want something reliable. But the industry is slowly moving towards headless solutions, but it's hard to find hosting providers that want to host a casino, you can't just go to your regular godaddy or a2hosting provider and host a casino there.
#3. Most of the solutions are web apps made in angular and react, so I'm not sure a VPS is the ideal solution, but overall a 6-8 core CPU and 32 GB RAM could do the job (I think).
#4. It really depends on the casino, some operators share your KYC data across their brands, others don't, but I assure you that it's in no ones interest to make problems for the players.
#5. That's probably a good question for game providers, I don't know the answer, but I'll try to find out.
