I prefer 3. g3.

Some of my supporters would not be happy if they knew how much time I was spending thinking about cryptocurrencies instead of chess.

Since Russia would be the least happy to know that, I would venture that you are a Russian GM. Though that doesn't really narrow it down much.

3. g3 and 3. d4 are the two proposals right now. I will wait for a consensus

I am not ready to confirm or deny where I am from. I will say that I travel often. My above comment was not necessarily meant to imply that my country has an official position on bitcoin (that may or may not be true). I only meant that there is a lot of pressure on me to win and desire to see me very focused on chess.

This may be a small clue to my identity. Of course I spend a lot of time studying chess. However I have a small reputation for studying less than some of my peers. I do not consider myself lazy, I just like to do other things, at least in private. In fact I learned about bitcoin by accident one day while browsing online when I was supposed to be be reviewing my opening preparation for an upcoming opponent.
