Unfortunate news about Big Mike from Nexusfi.com (FutureIo)

Hello, What is happening to nexufi.com, I can not access to it anymore, am I the only one?

Was the name changed?
I tried contacting Mike (nexusfi owner) via the help email but no answer?

thanks

I think that the owner sadly passed away recently. Very sad.

Thank you for the information, Quagensia.

If that is indeed the case, that is very sad news. Mike built a valuable community that helped many traders over the years, and my thoughts are with his family and loved ones.

I was wondering why the site was no longer accessible and why I wasn’t receiving any responses. Hopefully there will be an official update regarding the future of NexusFi and any community resources that may remain available.

Thanks again for letting us know.

If NexusFi is truly gone, it would be a shame to lose all the knowledge, discussions, and friendships that were built there over the years.

Has anyone considered a way for the community to continue?
I’m sure many former members would be interested in staying connected and preserving at least part of what was built.

If there is already an initiative underway, I’d be interested in learning more and potentially helping if possible.

OMG! That’s terrible. A big loss to the trading community.

I knew that Mike has ongoing health issues, but I never thought they were life threatening.

My heart goes out to his wife and his lovely dogs.

I will miss “Big Mike in Ecuador”!

I did a quick google search and I found this cached result, which links to nexusfi.com so I couldn’t read the details:

I didn’t know he had health problems. Early 50s. Really sad. I personally got a ton from “Big Mike’s Forum”, then “futures.io”, then “nexusfi.com”. @Robotman I also will miss “Big Mike in Ecuador”.

@wil70 I agree, it would be great if someone took it over, got the community and all the old posts back online. Perhaps someone could purchase the business from his widow. I see the domain is for sale for $995, but the real value in the business for whoever runs it isn’t the domain, but would be the active users, but all the old web pages indexed by Google, Bing, and other search engines, etc., the code samples, etc., and the possibility to stand on Big Mike’s shoulders and build what he built even bigger. Perhaps someone who is interested in running a community could contact his widow somehow… if she hasn’t already sold the business she would probably really appreciate an inquiry into purchasing it and a fair offer. But whoever bought the business would want to buy the domain name before someone else does, although even if the domain got bought by someone else, if someone purchased the forum and the business from his widow, they could put it on another domain and then tell the world about the domain of the new forum. This is not something that makes sense for me to do, but if someone does I would be happy to put the word out to our users.

I’m just gonna drop this link from Elite Trader that might shed some light because right now there is just a vacuum of info and no way for the thousands of members to communicate with one another.

Which domain is to sell for $995? I’ll check but this must be an error, the main used domains are not to sell.

Mike’s widow asked me to manage nexusfi, so the journey continues!
It would be a shame to lose all the great content traders can find there.

Hi @sam028,

I am so glad that you will be managing nexusfi.

When I wrote this a couple of months ago:

I see the domain is for sale for $995

I wrote that because when I when to nexusfi.com, a web page loaded that said that the domain was available for sale for $995. Perhaps Big Mike’s widow temporarily didn’t pay a monthly web hosting bill or domain re-registration renewal bill on time due to everything else she needed to focus on, causing this message to appear, which then reminded her to figure out how to contact the web host or domain registrar and continue paying in the same way that Big Mike did when he was alive, and once she paid the nexusfi.com website started showing up again… that is my guess for why this message appeared temporarily.

Anyway, see you on nexusfi… thank you for managing this wonderful resource and keeping it going. I am sure that this would have made Big Mike very happy to know.

Best regards,

Brook
