To some extent, the price of a bitcoin is a measure of the success of bitcoins. (Though indirectly.)

This is an important point. Perhaps trivial, but many miss it: if Bitcoin ever succeeds, the exchange rates will have to be many times higher than they are today. The other way around is not necessarily true: high price doesn't indicate the success (wide adoption). Lots of fiat capital doesn't necessarily mean lots of users and diversity.
