It seems like TON is becoming a hot topic in the market this year but it is not the main market trend, it is just a temporary trend and the hype around it will subside soon. The main market trend is still bitcoin and possibly ETH, the rest of the market is temporary and will disappear after each market cycle.
The idea of a trend is something that is popular at that particular time, a trend usually is not meant to last long and very easily gets replaced by more current systems which appeals to the audience better. When NFT was the topic of discussion, it was the trend at that time, memecoins have also been the trend, Solana too and TON.
Bitcoin and ethereum are not trends, Bitcoin is not usually a hot topic except the price increases or there's something of note happening on the network. And unlike trend, it's not a topic that will subside after a while.
