At first glance, it seems obvious that you should test your luck for a Core. However, PV doesn’t make it that easy. There have been a lot of benefits to holding a Generative:

Just as with PUNKS Comic #1, PV forces collectors to make decisions based on their preferences and risk appetite, e.g.
do you burn your MintPass to see if you’ll get a rare Generative, and the chance to claim a rarer planet?
do you want the guaranteed benefits of having a Generative, or do you give those up for the chance at winning a Core?
do you want to participate in POWer Up Summer to build your supply of Gear Pods and get the chance to win the MintPass #2 raffles?

There is no expiry date for when MintPass #1 can be burned for a Generative, so this game has been ongoing since since August 2021. It’s hard to know if/when it’ll end given the chance of winning a Core, and the potential rewards for holding a Genesis Set.
The final Core raffle was completed on 21 Oct 2022.
