  It seems that the QR scanner on iPhone 12 may not be optimized for scanning cryptocurrency QR codes. This could be due to the complexity and variety of QR codes used in the cryptocurrency industry. It's possible that the scanner is not able to interpret the specific format or encoding used in these QR codes, leading to the scanning issues. Apple may need to update the QR scanner software to better handle cryptocurrency QR codes.

  I had the same problem with my iPhone 12 when scanning cryptocurrency QR codes. After some research, I found that certain cryptocurrency QR codes use a different format or encoding than regular QR codes. This could be the reason why the scanner is not working properly. It's frustrating, but you can try using a third-party QR code scanner app specifically designed for cryptocurrency QR codes. These apps often have better compatibility and can accurately scan cryptocurrency QR codes.
