Hello, 2 specific questions..
Looking for feedback from those who have had direct experience or knowledge in running in the YouTube Space along with several AdSense accounts.

1.) Let's say you have two YouTube channels under separate emails that are monetized: you start off with one Google AdSense account, let's call it AdSense #1, that is opened with a new LLC, let's call it LLC #1.
After a month, both YouTube channels under AdSense #1 connected to LLC #1 are both earning and have no copyright claims, strikes, or issues.

I then decide for safety: based on performance of the channels, to cover opening a second LLC, to create LLC #2, and create AdSense #2 using the new LLC, and then I move one of the two channels to this new AdSense #2.

Now each channels is connected to a separate AdSense account.
Now, let's say Channel #1 under AdSense #1 gets TERMINATED afterwards, will Channel #2 (that was moved before the termination) that was connected to AdSense #2 be terminated because it has in its past, been under the same AdSense (#1) by any chance?
Based on forums, I have read that copyright claims to demonization for a channel: will NOT affect other channels linked to the same AdSense, but a termination MAY..


2.) Additionally, when verifying a channel to get extra features (A/B thumbnail testing, pinned comments, etc) - and not choosing the verify by waiting for channel history option, and instead, choosing Passport / ID to verify each YouTube channel, can this potentially trigger Google to delete one of the two AdSense accounts / force you to use one of the two AdSense's? Or will in fact, the LLC's, despite being under the same person, but with different addresses and bank accounts, keep the channels safe and will be legally, following TOS, able to stay in place with the two AdSense accounts?

Would it rather be advised to get verified by waiting for channel history to build up for a few months, getting the channel verified automatically to unlock all the features?

Apologies for the long-write up, it seems like a gray-area, any help or feedback would be greatly appreciated.
 
Interesting questions. It is generally a good idea to separate things. Im myself currently trying to learn how to do this properly. In my case the channel was demonetized, but YT does not help you telling you how to monetize it again. So I want to leave it as it is right now and start a new channel and see what can be done with that traffic in the future, or if YT is forced eventually to disclose to its users what contents cause demonetizations, then I could monetize it again without having to delete a bunch of content unnecesarily.

Since Google/YT is mostly bots screwing up people these days, perhaps after the change has been made (that you move the Adsense#2 into channel #2) that is enough, unless someone manually checks it for some reason and sees that you had the channel connected into Adsense#1 which was then moved to Adsense#2... so that is still there to see. Ideally you would have started the channel 2 at the same time you started a new Adsense. But I guess still keeping it separate would bring an additional layer of protection.

About 2) Im not sure what the extra features are. If you can upload long videos and have custom thumbnails, then I would just wait until they give you the extra features just in case.
 
Now, let's say Channel #1 under AdSense #1 gets TERMINATED afterwards, will Channel #2 (that was moved before the termination) that was connected to AdSense #2 be terminated because it has in its past, been under the same AdSense (#1) by any chance?
No one can say for sure, but the risk of banning the second channel will be lower than if both channels continued to be linked to the same AdSense account.
