A verifiable QR-code system where the medium doesn't matter such as the one in Europe. Use a screenshot, print it on paper, doesn't matter.

This is how BC does it. You get a QR code which you can either present on your phone or as a print out.

I can confirm. See my comment upthread about recent trip to Switzerland.

I did all of these things (printed, screenshot, pulled up a webpage) and also had a successful scan of a picture of a QR code that I had in my photoreel (which showed the entire printout, of course, with my name, etc. on it).

That sounds pretty reasonable, yeah.
