I'm wondering why you are doing this. You say that you are a millionaire who's losing patience with Bitcoin, yet you do this stress test. So I wonder what the background really is.
It needs to be figured out if Bitcoin is ready for mass adoptions.
Results will be very important.

This test only cost 20BTC which is about $5000 per day, not much money for USA or Russia or China government.

They could probably even afford much much stronger "stress test" lasting weeks or months.

I applaud your efforts. This test should give folks a very good idea about exactly what will happen on the Bitcoin network in the near future if the block size is not increased.

If the Bitcoin network is not resilient enough to withstand this test, then it is not designed very well.

Thank you and good job!
