This is indeed a thing to consider before some company or individual take your software as part of their business. One problem I don't know if they might encounter is security once there are still bugs on the software. So far, your software being open source and easy to use is a huge contribution to the mining community. Also, the reason why some asks for what would be your 'mode of earning' in this contribution is that your software can make tons of money for someone who have enough hardware and money to make an infrastructure of servers. Hence why not at least highlight the fact that donation would help you a lot make this a firm software - it isn't necessary indeed but would adds up some return to your hardwork for 2 years.
If you ever aren't alone, I know you and your team will reach far in mining community with this contribution. Keep up the good work. There's a lot of things in mining that has to be innovate.
Thanks, really appreciate it! Yep, I definitely agree with your comment on security, especially for enterprise users. I don't necessarily expect a large operation to trust and use Foundation currently though, especially given how new/unproven it is at scale. I'm more targeting smaller miners and individuals looking to get involved with the community, but there'll always be room for growth as the project becomes more established.
