When I scan an address QR code, I receive an alert

When scanning a wallet QR code using the TenX app, you may receive an alert that says:

"We were unable to verify the address from the QR code provided. Please ensure you are scanning the correct crypto address. Funds sent to an incorrect address cannot be recovered."

When we rebuilt the app in React Native, we made the decision to support QR codes following the correct BIP0021 standard (more info can be found here).

The BIP0021 standard says that any wallet address QR codes must be prefixed by their respective blockchain (for example "bitcoin:[address]" or "ethereum:[address]"). We decided to enforce this standard as it highly reduced cases of users sending funds to the wrong blockchain.

Unfortunately, there are a significant number of wallet providers who do not yet follow the standard, so this alert is to help prevent users from sending funds to the incorrect blockchain. If you choose to proceed, please ensure you are scanning the correct crypto address. Funds sent to an incorrect address cannot be recovered.
