Bounty is being distributed, just at the moment dealing with claims from unsatisfied bounty participants, lot of info gathering and recalculations before proceeding with sending itself.
About transactions you can ask tomorrow the tech, I’m sure they can provide you with proper answer, but Change team has communicated with community any withdrawals in chat, to avoid confusion.
Edit:
I'm sure they're not that stupid to promise bounties to literally thousands of us, and then not come through. Just being associated with a scam could destroy fantastic potential business relationships with established brands, so I think the devs should think long and hard about how they're going to deal with this. Not a threat, but a fair warning.
