I'd completely drop the Crypto bit, as it comes from "kryptos", the Greek word for "hidden"... IMHO it clashes horribly with the rest of the Latin sentence, and should be translated into Latin as well. But then of course, it wouldn't have the same ring to it anymore...

Sorry for the late reply!

Crypto is already fully Latinized by changing the k to a c. It doesn't really clash, and choosing another non-borrowed Latin word would just be confusing, as it would bring in words with other connotations, like caecus (blind), clandestinus (clandestine), furtivus (thief-like), latebrosus (lurking), and such.

Just use crypto.

For the record, I like Cryptomoneta Credimus.
