Well, judging a cryptocurrency based on its per coin/token value is certainly not the best option. For example, the #3 coin on coinmarketcap - Ripple (XRP) - is currently trading at below 60 cents per token and has a market cap of nearly $24 Billion!

Rather than judging a cryptocurrency by its per coin/token value, you should should judge it by its: chart, marketcap, and/or potential return (%). You could also add in a few other metrics like the company/currency's market share, market size, and notability of its brand.
