Being on the OTCQB means that the company is current in their reporting with a US regulator which already puts it leaps and bounds ahead of companies trading on the pink sheets. People who trade penny stocks know this whereas most traditional investors (those who never stray from their big board stocks) generally look at ANY stock trading on the OTC markets like it's a 'stinky pinky'. This is why the CEO of Citadel wants to get listed on the NYSE -- because being listed on one of the larger exchanges makes the company seem much more 'legitimate' to the average investor, something an uplisting to the -QX board wouldn't accomplish.
