Price is not an indicator of a coin/token's success. Bitcoin could be as low as $100 and still succeed by being well adopted(though adoption would most likely increase the price). At least now we have significantly less price-related memes on communities like Reddit.
Don't get me wrong though, I definitely want a price increase(who doesn't?).
Correct, there were many coins that were successful in terms of price but the community could tell they were scams and time and time again the community was proven right and those poor souls that did not listened lost all their money because of it, so price is not a valid metric to say if a coin is successful since we know very well how that can change very fast from one day to the other.
