Will methanol work as well as ethanol on 30% blend? M440i 2022

As title says. Methanol where I live is more readily available. What are some concerns regarding it? Car can safely handle up to E25 ethanol according to fuel cap. Will this apply to Methanol too? I’m looking to run Map 2 once my JB4 arrives, and pump gas is only 91 AKI. With E30 or M30 it should boost octane (at least up to minimum of 93 AKI, yes?)

If I can’t go with methanol, I’ll have to resort to boostane professional to raise octane to 93.5AKI

Do not put methanol in your tank, it's highly corrosive.
