Might be obsolete after a bit though. A QR code only points to a URL and that might change (unlikely, but after 20 years...)

You can make QR codes that copy text to a clipboard right? Can't you just make it a DOI search term? Or pay $2/yr for a redirect domain that you can point to where you want later

Sure, but that $2/yr company goes out of business after 10 years and the QR code stops working.

I guess making the number just copy into your clipboard would be a decent option, but you can also just copy/paste text from images now, so why go through the trouble of QR coding it when that only makes sense to a computer?

Even if your registrar goes out of business ICANN will help you restore the domain with a new registrar.

Source it happened to one of my customers.
