On the other hand, the vast majority of anyone holding any bitcoin are not making transactions, so the electricity per person using bitcoin over any medium sized window is probably vastly higher.
For example, in Jan 23 million bitcoin wallets had transactions. Since many actors hold multiple wallets, this would imply not so many active bitcoin users. [1]
Per capita could mean anyone who has ever touched it in any way, or could mean someone who actually uses it reasonably often.
