Seeing a lot of "invest it in X" answers in this thread, but I'll echo what ForeverScrnd said — the real question is what you already know how to do. €85k isn't "start a business" money in most online verticals, it's "buy yourself 18 months of runway and test cheap" money.
I watched a friend do this exact dance a couple of years back. He had around €70k from selling a small content site and wanted to dump it all into one big idea. Instead he parked most of it, took €10k aside as what he called tuition money, and ran three small experiments: a niche affiliate play, a tiny lead-gen service, and a paid newsletter. Two of them died quietly. The lead-gen one was doing €2–3k a month within about five months, and only then did he start feeding it the rest of the capital.
That's the mindset I'd copy. If the idea needs the full €85k to work, it's too expensive — €5–10k should be enough to validate almost anything online. And keep six months of personal living costs ring-fenced before you touch a single ad account. Running on scared money is what makes people scale campaigns that were never ready.

My advice is not what to do with the money. It is what not to do with the money. Never ever put all your eggs in one basket.
In today’s world, it is very difficult to know what to do with such money. Just don’t invest in crypto if you don’t know much about it. What you can do is to go visit websites that sell businesses - where people list their businesses for sale to see if something resonates with you. Only buy verifiable income making businesses, but don’t dump all your eggs in one basket.
