I believe Hurricane Electric’s free DNS https://dns.he.net/  supports DNSSEC if you do zone transfers to them. (No personal experience, but we’ve been considering using them for the same purpose, and they seem to have a good community reputation).

This is good news!  I knew there were several good choices for free
DNS hosting, but this is the first I heard of them supporting signed
zones.

Are there others?  I saw another one amongst your NS hosts, but that
seems to be your own domain.  (If you're offering secondary NS for
free, please do mention your service here.)


I use https://puck.nether.net/dns<https://puck.nether.net/dns/>/<https://puck.nether.net/dns/> .  It's free, it uses current version of bind, supports DNSSEC,
has been stable for several years.  Only drawback is that if you're in Chicago, you won't get
enough geographic diversity.  They have only server, which is there.  And of course, with free
the SLA is "best efforts, no guarantee."
