That looks cool. So, with project satyr, you are hoping that attackers would access your honeypot proxies from their actual IP? I find that hard to believe. Most of them either use a reputed VPN or Tor as their first point of entry so you are just hoping for low hanging fruits here, which makes for a shitty threat intel

Not really, most DDoS attacks are made from servers, taking down those servers makes the attacker need to get new ones. And from the logs I can assure you that 90% of the time it is a server, and the rest it is either residential IPs or VPNs but residential IPs are seen more i'd say.
