The Euro tech scene though, can be argued, had more of a minimal effect on mainstream music up until the last decade or so, where it exploded to be everywhere. So I don't know if it's as much of an evolution - the blend of EDM with other music has been pretty revolutionary for the other genres and mainstream music (and one can argue that other revolutions in music were having the foundation laid earlier in some ways in more niche styles).
And yeah, you are right about trap. It it possible that it fades out like dubstep.
