Offer: detailed Bitcoin Core node debug.log's (2024-...)

Starting sometime early 2024, I have detailed Bitcoin Core node debug logs from multiple nodes (usually 10+) that I could share for research and development purposes. I’ve been collecting these as part of my peer-observer project. As of October 2025, this is about 4 TB compressed and more than 30 TB uncompressed.

They include the following Bitcoin Core debug log categories.

• net
• addrman
• cmpctblock
• mempoolrej
• validation
• bench
• txpackages
• mempool (since 2024-05-04)

These debug logs aren’t cleaned up yet (e.g. remove my honeypot node IP addresses), so that’s probably something I’d want to do beforehand. Getting these from archival storage is a bit of effort, too.

Some sample debug.log’s might be available on https://demo.peer.observer/debug-logs/
