<p>
<a href="https://ghostfol.io">Ghostfolio</a>, the web-based personal
finance management software, is celebrating 500 stars on
<a href="https://github.com/ghostfolio/ghostfolio">GitHub</a>. This
is a major milestone for this open source project and a good time
for another

<h2 class="h4">Growing Community</h2>
<p>
The Ghostfolio community is growing on various platforms and has
recently passed 100 members on
<a
href="https://join.slack.com/t/ghostfolio/shared_invite/zt-vsaan64h-F_I0fEo5M0P88lP9ibCxFg"
>Slack</a
>
as well as 100 followers on
<a href="https://twitter.com/ghostfolio_">Twitter</a>. If you have
not joined yet, this is a good time to make sure you do not miss out
on any future updates.

<h2 class="h4">Message Queue: Asynchronous Processing</h2>
<p>
Overall
<a href="https://status.ghostfol.io">stability and robustness</a>
has increased significantly since the introduction of a
<a href="https://github.com/OptimalBits/bull">message queue</a>. The
workers of this robust queue system process jobs, namely gathering
historical market data, asynchronously in the background to not
bother the main service.

<h2 class="h4">Ready for Web 3.0</h2>
<p>
The
<a href="../en/blog/2022/07/ghostfolio-meets-internet-identity"
>recent integration of Internet Identity</a
>, a blockchain authentication system, makes Ghostfolio ready for
Web3. This third iteration of the World Wide Web is the vision of a
new and better Internet based on decentralized blockchains to give
power back to the users. <i>Internet Identity</i> created by the
<a href="https://dfinity.org">Dfinity Foundation</a> enables you to
sign in securely and anonymously to Ghostfolio without an e-mail
address, username, or a password. All you need is your device with
built-in biometric authentication.

<h2 class="h4">Break-even Point</h2>
<p>
Despite the complicated
<a [routerLink]="routerLinkMarkets">economic situation</a> at this
time, the goal set at the beginning of the year to build a
sustainable business and reach break-even with the SaaS offering (<a
[routerLink]="routerLinkPricing"
>Ghostfolio Premium</a
>) has been achieved. We will continue to leverage the revenue to
further improve the fully managed cloud offering for our paying
customers. A new goal we have set for ourselves is to become
profitable.

<h2 class="h4">Outlook</h2>
<p>
Besides all the positive accomplishments during the last months,
there is still a lot of room for improvement. It would be great to
onboard more contributors who are actively involved in software
engineering to realize the full potential of open source software.
If you are a web developer and interested in personal finance,
please get in touch by e-mail via
<a href="mailto:hi@ghostfol.io">hi&#64;ghostfol.io</a> or on Twitter
<a href="https://twitter.com/ghostfolio_">&#64;ghostfolio_</a>. We
are happy to discuss ideas.
</p>
<p>
We would like to say thank you for all your feedback and support
since the beginning of this project.
</p>
<p>
Off to the next 500 stars!<br />
Thomas from Ghostfolio
