I hve my X3 now for 17 month, use the BMW key cover and my trunk never opened without reason.
It was in my pocket (if it helps, I was in the driver's seat, engine running, car in park). I have a non-OEM fob cover which is pretty pliable, so perhaps need something more rigid, in addition to Bimmercode. Wish this wasn't an issue to begin with, but appreciate all the advice to mitigate it going forward!
