EVER ANY moisture troubles in that basement?

yes, only when there is a ton of rain. (5 inches a day or something simaler)
The eastern end of the basement gets wet.

seal not only cracks in floor but around top of basement walls..

The basement walls are walled up (sheetrocked) and painted.

putting wood on a floor with a known water problem is dumb, sorry its
blunt but true.

before putting down wood floor you HAVE to fix the water problem!!

Another thing all the nails and screws holding the walls up are radon
leak points and you have no access to them.

so get the water problem fixed permanetely

get the radon exhaust system installed. have ingress egress windows or
a door installed

then wait till after a big storm to confirm water problem is gone
before putting down wood floor.

water will just ruin wood, waste of time and money, sorry

sorry your trying to do this problem backwards.
