Digital signatures and electronic signatures are somewhat different from each other. An electronic signature can be an image or a check mark or even a recorded sound whereas a digital signature is tied to a certification authority attesting to the validity of the signer (or something like that). Standards for digital signatures vary by country but my understanding is that updates are underway to cover blockchain signatures (NIST in the US and EIDAS in the EU)
