Yea i just have a quick question about the team xecuter mod chip mainly about the real time game switching bit its just that couldn't you just put a lot of games you don't own onto an SD card and then just claim the gold points for them so you could technically get free money?

I doubt it, but I'm sure if you tried it there would be no quicker, or more assured way to get banned by Nintendo, so I'd recommend just not to do it, and instead move that thought to the furthest corner of your mind

Given a Switch game's gold coins can only be redeemed on one console, it's likely one of two things:
The dump can be claimed once
The dump is treated as a digital title from which you wouldn't get coins anyway.

Nobody knows yet. Everything is a guess at this point.

Can you redeem the emulated Cart for Gold Points? Technically, no.

Especially since the RETAIL carts normally have a CARTRIDGE-SPECIFIC CERTIFICATE in them that is removed in the BBB dumps.

If you were to try and redeem those, it's likely to... just not redeem. Hell, it's more likely to error out, since there's no certificate in the cartridge for it to use.

No, the cert is gone. Plus I can almost say that it's already been activated before you would even be close to touch it. Stop trying to want to do "fraud" (It's not but close enough).

Very unlikely. That will be a security flaw on Nintendo's part. I haven't taken a look at what's in a cart/digital download, but it is highly likely there is a per-cart/digital download unique certificate for that. Once it's redeemed by someone (probably original cart owner), it would not be able to be redeemed by someone else. And if there is a unique certificate in every cart, then you risk being banned by going online since Nintendo can theoretically detect multiple people with the same cart certificate going online at the same time.

That would make since considering the 3DS had a Private Header ID system of it's own, so I really wouldn't expect any less of the Switch, and it's own take on that, which considering their more direct focus on security with the Switch, I'd also be concerned with any Offline Pirated games being flagged by the system, and stored somewhere offline till you connect to the Internet, when it's then sent through anyone of Nintendo's many telemetry services, which could paint your console Bright Red for the Big N's Ban Hammer.
