That’s a rounding error to the half a trillion dollar global drug trade [1].

So what?

It’s still a billion dollars and it has been steadily growing every year.

Is this a Bn in drug volume traded or a Bn of revenue that the exchange takes as a % of the drug $ traded? If the latter your estimate prob make sense, although I don’t know what their margin is.
