Hoping that this is the right place for this, I am asking a question as to what happens with what is in the CoinJoin bounty fund address at:

http://blockchain.info/address/3M8XGFBKwkf7miBzpkU3x2DoWwAVrD1mhk

(a P2SH / multisignature address)

I encouraged people to donate to it in late 2013 (around mid-November) after seeing some reddit discussions ~ I think the original one I saw was at http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1qmhkh/coinjoin_fundraising_drive/

Since that time I know it's been implemented in various places, such as things seen floating about the web with some relation to CoinJoin or another: such as: https://github.com/calafou/coinjoin and blockchain.info https://twitter.com/blockchain/status/402224010492006400/ | https://github.com/blockchain/Sharedcoin etc..

I'm curious what the CoinJoin bounty fund supports at this point and where it's intended to go (I assume, CoinJoin related stuff, but I'm interested to know a bit more detail). And if it will help fund other things I am curious about what those other things are too. Again, hopefully the bitcoin-development list is the right place for this question, I felt it would be better asked here rather than on twitter or similar.

Respect,

Odinn

The correct place for more information is the Bitcointalk forum thread where it was announced: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=279249.0

Can anyone summarize the current status of the bounty? I see nothing definite about the bounty in that thread from the beginning of January 2014, other than that the multisig address continues to accumulate bitcoins. Meanwhile, on other mailing lists, I've seen some talk about paying a portion or the whole of the bounty to the Dark Wallet team.
