Takeicoin ( code: TAK) is a decentralized virtual currency derived from Bitcoin. Launched on February 8th, 2014, Takeicoin is "coined" as the world's first virtual currency designed to support human rights via minute automatic fees collected from mining pools and Takeicoin transactions. The image of television-movie star and social activist, George Takei, is used as the Takeicoin logo to represent the coin's charitable mission.

Creators
Takeicoin was created by New York Businessowner, Jordan Schneider, and Quontic Bank Vice-President, Micahel Serao of Queens, NY. Development of the coin originally stemmed from conversations about incorporating virtual currency into the Quontic banking system. Inspired by Serao's extensive involvement in the LGBT community, political activism, and charity fundraising experience, Schneider and Serao sought to create a virtual currency that would be dedicated to supporting human rights all over the world.

George Takei
Takeicoin's namesake is television-movie star, George Takei. George Takei is well known for his outspoken stance on Gay and human rights and his childhood experience as a prisoner in a Japanese American internment camp during World War 2. Mr. Takei is also famous for his ability to leverage social media to spread awareness of human rights issues. The creators of Takeicoin believe there is no better representative of a human rights virtual currency than Mr. Takei, and are currently working with charity organizations and associates of Mr. Takei in hopes that he will become an official supporter and primary endorser of Takeicoin.
