I wouldn't bother. I doubt it's worth the trouble. Mostly because first you'd have to write an application that someone would want to steal.

Once you write such an application it will be immediately cracked. Faster than you even get your first 100 dollars.

I'll burn that bridge after I've crossed it.

Right, I would do that too. The only thing I would like to emphasize is that often there is no evident point of "crossing the bridge". Most products are not overnight successes; they are the results of the everyday grind. Personally I prefer to be a bit proactive to avoid possible rat races with competitors, crackers and cyber-squatters in the future.

Also, if you first put out only a simplified demo version to test the waters. Additionally, do that for free, so there is no way for a**holes to under-cut you.

Please pay attention to your core logic and the licensing code. They should be obfuscated at the first place to protect your hard work and investments. Good luck!
