An expat stays indefinitely on a tourist visa, going to a border country every 180 days to reset, then returning. He uses resources of that country while he makes some money on his crypto scams and drives up the rent for locals.
An Immigrant uses proper visas and works, pays taxes, etc.

And I don't hate digital nomads I'm usually a digital nomad but 90% of us are parasites. Even I can be called a parasite because while I don't run crypto scams I still work remote on a tourist visa free period when I do it and pay no taxes to that country.
Locals rightfully don't like us which is why I usually don't say "Oh yeah I'm working remote here tee hee"
