Safing is a interesting approach to distributed VPNs. Unlike the crypto models, you pay for your use with the subscription the payments accepted via crypto if you like. So there’s no direct link to you as the payee
Each circuit could take a different path through the network, it’s kind of like a self-supported tor architecture.
It’s a super interesting project I highly recommend reading about it if you’re interested in distributed VPNs, or even onion networks in general
Of course the granddaddy’s of distributed VPNs are tor and I2P. That should be the start of any of your research, and then you can look at the more niche options.
Avoid any VPN, distributed or not, that’s closed source. The vast majority of the " crypto VPNs " are closed source packages which do evil things to your network

It’s a onion network
But they do charge a monthly fee, which is something Tor doesn’t do
