It seems to me that the shared fiction of the dollar is based on the shared fiction of America. The fiction of America creates a real American government that has a strong interest in maintaining the fiction of the dollar.
From what I can tell, Bitcoin does have a similar pair of shared fictions, the idea and the currency. But I'm not seeing the thing that America has between the two fictions: a powerful organization with a strong interest in keeping the money useful as money.
