I am keeping a close eye on smart contracts, but so far it seems like there needs to be new primitives to make them really interesting. So far they can only really act on tokens on the same blockchain. And still I haven't seen almost any new financial instruments, e.g. options, hedge funds of tokens. There's obviously interesting things you can do with smart contracts when they're actually tied to real world events, but for that you need oracles. That hasn't been figured out as far as I can tell.
