I am thinking of ways to (i) support a project I value and (ii) how to do that by minimizing risk. vls.tech seems to be something that allows me to keep control over my keys while letting them use it. I would basically have to sign off on any transaction.

It's not about the money here. If it were that, I'd go back to the 12% APY I was getting during the prime of my LN routing node experience.

In the end, this post is more about learning about other similar services as vls.tech that would allow me to take the same risk as when running a node, while not having to run a node.
