They won't just outright terminate the whole tld just like that. They'll first try to find another registry willing to take over the zone.
But that poses another problem, assuming you haven't reg it for something like 10 years, suddenly it won't be as cheap anymore if the new registry taking it over decided to hike the fee.
Afaik .top is just really cheap for the 1st year. For subsequent renewal its around $4-5. More stable, less spammy, no looming problem of registry getting revoked .de .be .uk is around $4-5 too.
