According to BlockBeats, Steinberger expressed disinterest in potential financing deals worth millions or billions, citing concerns over time consumption and conflicts of interest, such as prioritizing enterprise versions and altering open-source licenses, which could harm the community. He emphasized his desire for completely free open-source solutions without conditions, noting that relying on donations is unsustainable, as evidenced by popular projects like Tailwind undergoing layoffs. Steinberger also revealed that Openclaw is currently operating at a loss, with monthly revenues ranging from $10,000 to $20,000, while subsidizing personally maintained dependent projects.
