Cool idea - but the dots colour/size ratio in comparison to the rest of the map doesn’t work. It looks like a grey map of the world and you really have to zoom in to see.

I think you're right that it looks to much like a blank map, although I feel like if the dot-sizes would increase a lot of parts of the map (like North-eastern US and England) would become to clustered and that there would be no room. I'am open for suggestions to solve this though :)

I think a heat map might work better than dots, and you can split it into several different maps for different continents

If not a heat map, maybe graduated symbology with a gradient/starburst effect.
