I just checked Electrum's official website as well as their github and I also don't see any donation link mentioned like many other projects. So how can people donate and developers can receive donations to keep the project going?

The core team member of Electrum wallet said that he and the team don't need donation to develop the wallet software.

Thank you for your support. I usually do not request donations for myself, because I do not think it is an effective way to incentivise free software.
Developers who request bounties tend to finish projects quickly, and do not really care about long-term maintenance.

However, you you can donate to the people who run public Electrum servers.
Electrum does relies on servers, and we currently lack an effective way to reward the server operators.

Also note that I created a company that will distribute Electrum, sell paying services to Electrum users, and fund further development of the Electrum software.
