I've seen your statement "This is a sponsored project. That means in order to create issues and pull requests, or use the project commercially, you must become a sponsor."

You used the Box2D code and reimplemented it in C# which forces your project to use the same license as Box2D is using, so it prohibits you to restrict using this library for commercial use without sponsoring your project.

That is not how it works. Box2D is licensed under MIT, which allows sublicensing, thereby allowing further restrictions to the software. This project is published under MIT as well but with the added restrictions described in the readme.
