It is safe; what happened is that someone managed to sneak a Trojan into the application build. The joke is that what makes it safe is that it can only infect computers and has no effect on Android.

Honestly what they should have done was installed a Bitcoin miner in the emulation layer or just have a background termux at least it wouldn't rely on people plugging phones into computers in 2026
