As soon as I can experiment with programming an EOS or Cardano smart contract I'll be happy to comment on their viability, but as far as I can figure out you can't, or at least no one is doing it.

Ethereum has a working smart contract on the foundation website, as well as an online compiler to test with.

The EOS testnet launched last week. You can play with it using eos.js: https://github.com/eosio/eosjs

EOS looks like the most developer-friendly crypto I've seen. If you can write in a language that can compile to WebAssembly, then you can create a DApp on EOS.

No doubt about. Either way, the newcomers are bringing new ideas that can also make Ethereum improve.
