Why would one possibly need a SaaS payment processor for crypto? Unlike with traditional banking, running your own crypto node and processing network transactions is not some huge investment that one may want to offload to a third party.

To offload dealing with problems (technical and legal) and risks to the processor. Like everything SAAS basically. If they get hacked, it's not your money being lost for example.
