@orthodoxokie no no no, don't listen to him. The fact you don't trust stashaway is already a huge sign how risk averse you are. Crypto whether it's BTC, ETH, and alt-coins are riskier than stocks especially compared to lesser known stocks.
@orthodoxokie FD (because current rate is high), money market (like TnG +), ASM
This is because from what i gather about what you are saying, you are really really freshie and know little to nothing about investment; which is fine. We were all there before. The above are very low risk and quit liquid. Park your money there first, learn about the basics of investment and then only slowly diversify into more risky stuff.
