As a side note, to avoid confusion with ASICminer (AM), I propose that the abbreviated form of ActiveMining should simply be ActM.
I'm personally a fan of ATM

And I hear you on the options - I'm getting burned hard there. As exciting as the merger is, those of us with options are taking quite a hit.
AMC will lag behind, true. But it will still go up, at least there isn't a wall to chew through. Plus until July 31st, it doesn't really matter which security has the wall.
