Lightning Network topology gossip datasets (lnresearch)
Lightning Network gossip history: channel_announcement, channel_update and node_announcement messages as raw bzip2-compressed message streams, one file per snapshot. Extracted after deduplication from the gossip_store files of the authors' c-lightning nodes, with checksums and a reader snippet in the README. Useful for reconstructing the network topology and channel policies at any point in time; gossip is lossy by design, so the collection is best effort.
