Makes a lot of sense to sell a service powered by an open source project. Why is the blockchain token "the best way", or necessary at all?

As far as I understood tea.xyz it uses a DAO contract to "bill" every download/install by the user. If you don't pay (in tokens) you won't get the package.

So the blockchain approach has a mechanism already in place that will support the payment.
