Partially, it's accurate when using the BT protocol. However if you use μTP (Micro Transport Protocol), it has “support for NAT traversal using UDP hole punching between two port-restricted peers where a third unrestricted peer acts as a STUN server.”

The only information I could find was a super admin posted they are "Either on vacation or on strike..."
I don't have any information about them. However if anyone would like to replicate their encodes, they did post how they do it last year: https://torrentgalaxy.to/forums.php?action=viewtopic&topicid=2865&page=last#last
I've copied the post below.
How to make GalaxyRG265 rips.
We took the RARBG x265 as a base and modified it to our liking. Biggest difference is DDP audio instead of AAC and CRF encoding instead of target bitrate.
GalaxyRG265 rips greatly vary in size as CRF encoding targets a desired visual quality and only uses the bitrate required for that. This results in movies with unsophisticated and little motion to be small and complex high motion movies to be big while both visually the same quality. We set a 4500K max bitrate cap to prevent overly complex video from bubbling to ridiculous sizes.
We use ffmpeg https://www.ffmpeg.org/download.html but other x265 encoders are fine.
ffmpeg parameters
ffmpeg -i INPUTMOVIE.mkv -map 0:V:0 -map 0:m:language:eng -map 0:s? -disposition:s:0 default -c:a eac3 -ac 6 -b:a 384k -c:s copy -c:v libx265 -pix_fmt yuv420p10le -preset slow -crf 22 -maxrate 4500K -bufsize 9M -x265-params "max-merge=5:limit-refs=3:rd=4:rc-lookahead=48:bframes=8:aq-mode=3" -vf "scale='trunc(min(1920/iw,1080/ih)*iw/2)*2':'trunc(min(1920/iw,1080/ih)*ih/2)*2':flags=lanczos" OUTPUTMOVIE.mkv
-map 0:V:0 -map 0:m:language:eng -map 0:s? -disposition:s:0 default
Selects first video stream, ditches any image/cover stream.
Selects English audio stream (use -map 0:a? to select all audio streams).
Selects all subtitle streams and sets first subtitle stream as default.
-c:s copy -c:a eac3 -ac 6 -b:a 384k -c:v libx265 -pix_fmt yuv420p10le -preset slow -crf 22 -maxrate 4500K -bufsize 9M
Copy any subtitles from selected source. Encode audio to DDP5.1 at 384K bitrate.
Encode video using the x265 encoder at 10bit with slow encoding preset set to CRF 22 and 4500K bitrate cap.
-x265-params "max-merge=5:limit-refs=3:rd=4:rc-lookahead=48:bframes=8:aq-mode=3"
Couple x265 tweaks. Some will argue against them. It's safe to leave this part out and stick to the default x265 parameters.
-vf "scale='trunc(min(1920/iw,1080/ih)*iw/2)*2':'trunc(min(1920/iw,1080/ih)*ih/2)*2':flags=lanczos"
This scales any input video to 1080p while retaining the proper aspect ratio. For quality encodes only use 1080p or higher input resolutions. Don't be a douche and use this to upscale videos.

This is accurate when using the BT protocol. However if you have uTP (Micro Transport Protocol) enabled, it has "support for NAT traversal using UDP hole punching between two port-restricted peers where a third unrestricted peer acts as a STUN server."
Long story short, in a limited way.
If you look at the protocols available, there are two, BT and μTP.
BT needs one of two peers to have a port open to connect to, either they initiate the connection, or you initiate connection. So if you want to download Arch Linux 2024.12.01(magnet:?xt=urn:btih:265863cbbb5ed9ef39e7c891ebebdf1623b09d5e&dn=archlinux-2024.12.01-x86_64.iso), you'll need to either connect to a seeder that has a port open, or if you have a port open the seeder can connect to you.
μTP can solve this by performing NAT traversal using UDP hole punching. The way this works is a third peer with open ports will relay information for both peers with closed ports to connect to each other.
Yeah, those are just false-positives, they think they are suspicious or malicious, but they are not. VirusTotal uses 70+ scanners to check the URL or file. The best way to think about it is that since the majority of the scans show it as clean, it is most likely to be safe. If there are several scans showing it as malicious, it probably has something that isn't safe.
If it is this, this Hacker News post has some information, the top comment by eastdakota is the CEO of CloudFlare: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19828317
I will stop uploading new ones here since it looks like the GDrive is being kept updated for now.

Version 1.1.4:
Bug Fixes:
- Fixed sprite glitch with Poe enemy, which was introduced after giving him a light. Gave ghost Poe in the catacombs a light also since on his sprite he's carrying a light as well, also improved their lighting a bit to make it look nicer.
- Fixed glitch with loose keys sometimes appearing 1 pixel off from being on the correct floor level, making you have to go up or down to collect it.
- Fixed cape where it would stay on after you defeat a boss. It now decloaks you the second any boss is destroyed.
- Fixed vulnerability with save file corruption where it could get corrupted if something happens during a save process like power outage or unexpected event. It now saves to a temp file first, and if the save was successful, it renames the temp file to the Users files.
- Fixed bug where picking up chicken from inside house's doorway would cause Link to clip into the walls and sometimes crash
- Fixed clipping glitch with outside castle wall door and bombs.
- Fixed glitch when strafing into a wall backwards, it would activate the push animation.
- Fixed glitch with Beamos statues able to hit you while you're falling into a pit causing extra damage.
- Improved warp destinations by giving them a larger safe-space buffer. Sometimes you would warp and enemies would be too close when you arrived.
- Fixed boss crystal falling even when paused.
- Fixed arithmetic bug with treasures and shops, if you got a bunch of rupees from a bought treasure and quickly bought another item while those rupees were still being added, the purchase would interrupt the rupees being added with the purchase amount being deducted causing you to lose rupees.
- Fixed rare bug where Zora would toss you nothing.
- Fixed bugs with Pikit. (See game change log for more details)
- Fixed graphical glitches for the Slarok enemies.
Changes:
- Added new pendant designs, credits: Errors
- Some Gem combos that give pendants have been shifted around.
- Swapped the gem combos for the lamp and cape. Lamp is now Sapphire(Blue) and Citrine(Yellow), Cape is now Sapphire(Blue) and Ruby(Red). Makes more sense based on the value of these items, and their sprite colors.
- Zora now gives you rupees if you already own the item. (See game change log for more details)
- You can now hit bosses with any rod. They all do 1 damage, they don't transform, just inflict damage. They can really help with swordless quest now.
- Bows are now a bit easier to find if playing swordless.
- Health drain curse now stops when reaching 2 health. Drain delay was changed to 7 secs instead of 10 secs because of this.
- Lamp has only 1 upgrade instead of 2 now. Made the candle shine a bit brighter, and the lamp now shines brighter than before.
- Changed the 2nd secret treasure room in the mining town maze, instead of more gems it's something better now.
- Made it so maps and compasses can't be spawned from treasures if more than 60% of the level has already been explored.
- Cape can only spawn from gold kinstones instead of red kinstones now.
- Made wizzrobes take a bit less time to spawn and a bit less time to stay invisible, making defeating them take less time.
- Fixed glitch with Agahnim during the gravity ball sequence, Link wouldn't get hurt by the spike blocks.
- Filtered the included sprite pack with only those we have permission to use. Also included a credits list for a lot of them.
- New King's key sprite, credits: Void42
- Moon pearl now changes color depending on the state of the colored blocks.
- Cape drains a tiny bit faster now.
- Added a few more community-drawn character sprite sheets in the sprite pack.

Version 1.1.3 Download: https://files.catbox.moe/5yj86d.zip
VirusTotal scan: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/url/f8a6e163c0795ae65824cd813f3eb1826f7ef17c382d7f8e1b16e361c98cf6be
Version 1.1.3:
Bug fixes:
- Fixed crash with items found in dead guy or treasure not having a valid index, which would cause the game to crash. The new safety check prevents a crash by making the dead guy or treasure have nothing inside, a message would pop up indicating this.
- Fixed game crashing if closing the inventory at the precise frame an info dialogue box was also being closed.
- Fixed bug with Leevers (sand creatures) spawning under link while he's in a doorway.
- Fixed bomb glitch where they sometimes wouldn't blow up.
- Fixed pendant of revival glitch still working even if you have the Pendant Don't Work Curse.
- Fixed new rod of stone bug introduced in 1.1.2 where enemies would come back to life when hit.
- Fixed floor switch and added a 2nd frame to show it was pressed.
- Fixed bug where if you inspected a shop item or opened the inventory/map at the exact frame you were hit by a bomb, it would still trigger the dialogue box/inv/map while you're dead/hit causing glitches.
- Increase buffer around wall enemies like Medusas, cannon, and Beamos to prevent there being spikes close to them possibly making them impassible without taking a hit.
- Fixed master sword beam's corner sprite edge appearing in the top-right corner of the screen for a frame.
- Fixed bonus item not resetting itself if saving then continuing then dying and restarting level. Same thing with the swordless mode, it wasn't saving properly.
- Fixed another bug with pots spawning over monuments. It was a separate bug but related to the first one. That should be the last of them.
- Fixed rare glitchy treasure chest that moved when you open it. It was caused by it's initial position not being an integer value, so the static tiles that replaced it after opening clamped to the nearest tile map grid position.
- Fixed layer issue with certain projectiles like hookshot, arrows, rod beams, etc that were on the wrong layer if you shot them from underneath a walkway.
- Fixed transform rods not working if enemies are frozen
- Usually if you stand on a map or compass if your inventory is full, it'll reveal the map attributes those normally show, but it was also revealing them when you were swinging your sword over them which shouldn't happen. Fixed the sword glitch.
- Fixed glitch when cursed with the 'hearts do damage' curse and you pick up a heart that kills you, it would cause glitches with the death sequence where you could still walk around.
- Fixed spelling mistakes
Changes:
- Updated the core input library, which includes fixes and more gamepad support.
- Red Armos now can't be hit using arrows. There were complications with him, and after lot's of trial and error to try and improve him, it was easier to just block arrows for the red one. You will need to use bombs if you're doing swordless quest. Also increased his jump speed by a small amount, not much. Felt he was too slow since the last time I slowed him down.
- Replaced the rod sprites, credit: Errors
- Made signs non-breakable, people were accidently grabbing them before reading them.
- Made cape magic drain a tiny bit faster, from 50 frames per drain down to 45 frames. Seemed it was too slow when watching people use it.
- Added a gold kinstone monument to mine town level
- Added light to the Poe ghosts that hold a lantern.
- Replaced Kinstone fusing sounds, credit: castle
- Added a ton more custom character skins
- Added sound to the cannon.
- Updated credits with more special thanks with mention to the Discord server. Also added feature where pressing down speeds up the credit scroll.
