Interesting! The OTC market's sheer size is mind-boggling. Option D is correct, a tenfold difference is significant. Makes you wonder about the inherent risk and complexity involved. It's a bit like mastering the late game of Sprunki - you need solid risk management to survive the enormous, unpredictable challenges.
