Wants

The volume of tokens an offer wants in exchange of the full volume of promised (or given) tokens.

caution

Note, that we also refer to a taker's wants (and gives). When not given from the context, we specify the viewpoint by referring to takerWants (and takerGives). This is done, for instance, in the naming of the parameters for a marker order.

When considering a specific offer, note that from the point of view of a taker, wants for an offer must be met by a specific takerGives. Do note, an offer can be taken partially (see Maker Partial Fill).

For instance, if an offer wants 2 USDC, that must be met by a takerGives of 2 USDC.
