Lightning Network gossip capture (gossip-observer)

Lightning Network gossip messages as sent and received by instrumented LDK nodes, with microsecond timestamps per message, peer and direction, published as monthly Parquet archives. The collectors connect to peers chosen across network communities and export their captures to Zenodo. Useful for studying gossip propagation, fanout and peer sync behaviour; messages sent by collectors are mostly replies to sync requests, not relays.
