Kbin Foundation when? (kbin.social)

When will there be a Kbin Foundation that:

collects and handles money to help build Kbin (right now I don't see a single "donate" button)
owns any property of Kbin (like domain and git), so that the board of the foundation can decide what's done with it if ernest kicks the bucket or goes insane
has a board that can make decisions about Kbin to spread power from one person to many?

@ernest
I don't even know how pinging works :)

I'll gladly become a donor when I see that Kbin will not be a one-guy-show for long, but a serious project that will outlive it's creator. If ernest is not actively planning to have this project live even without himself, then I bet it's not going to last.

Please comment any thoughts you have, and have a nice summer!

To expand a bit:

What is already happening is that kbin source code is getting more contributors to the code, his role is changing
from sole developer to gatekeeper.
There are lots of different names here : https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-core/pulls
