Advice Needed on weird paint issue

I saw this first by the driver's door and later by the badge on the hood. Has anyone seen anything like this or are rock chips responsible for this? They are very small, but I am scared that if left unchecked, the paint will continue bubbling and eventually fall.

Under CPO warranty so I could take it to a BMW dealer to have it checked. Was just trying to see if someone else had noticed something similar.

It looks like the stuff near the emblem is from a bike rack or something… like dents and scratches. The other one is strange though. I'd have a body shop check it out

LOL nope. I think its from a rock chip but it looks nowhere near what a rock chip looks like. I am taking it to the dealer Saturday. Thanks folks.
