After being hit by negative reception and an overwhelming number of dislikes on YouTube, Ubisoft removed the Quartz NFT announcement video.
Since the announcement of the Quartz NFT promotion, Ubisoft has become popular on social media for a multitude of reasons. That negative reaction has now led to the announcement video being removed from YouTube.
