Nah. Shriver had to write Bitcoin out of her story specifically because it prevents the downfall she was trying to narrate: > “The dollar is a historied currency that’s stabilized the international economy for over a century, Wilbur. The bancor is an upstart pretender whose constraints are unworkably strict. We just have to hold our nerve. After all—look at what happened to bitcoin.” No one will be holding their nerve to save the dollar.

she wrote the book in 2015 when it was completely reasonable to expect bitcoin to fail, shes a bitcoiner now just like in the book, some people will fare better than others, bitcoin will be a useful tool for those people
