Hi,

I am not sure why this w= asn't discussed more but it seemed like a very good idea to me https://www.reddit.com/r/Bit= coin/comments/9iivej/its_been_like_a_year_and_bech32_adoption_remains/ =

QR code is very important for network wide adoption. The problem is bech32 qr code isn't backward compatible and noone is going to show two QR=20 codes. Everyone is going safe with P2SH address qr code.

Example of proposed URI. I want not sure of technically best encodin= g, but this is just for ideas

As merchants/exchanges adopt this QR code, wallets that support bech32 can ch= ose to autopay to bech32 address=C2=A0 (for lower tx fee). This can create = a network effect=20 as more people start using bech32 and when we reach enough wallet=20 adoption, people can shift to just showing bech32 QR codes
