Well, we can always setup a service for Valhalla online. I have to make imports for the planet anyway, so we have data available for routing. Same goes for Mapbox tiles, btw. I don't know what are the requirements for the server, but its surely possible if the users would pay for it. Or if some company interested in it would like to back it. Let's see what is going to happen and then look for solutions.

But loosing a company such as Mapzen is a loss. In addition to Valhalla, they were supporting the developer of libpostal.
