I'd say signing the PGP key from an old staked Bitcoin address means a lot more than a photo ID.
I like to differentiate cryptographic identities from individuals, since this allows us a bit more granularity.

The core difference is that of verifiability: one is unable to link digital and analog identities without a lot of effort or without huge privacy holes, but when you separate the two, you can find links between the elements of each subset.
