    Yeah, you can buy more frame slots for 20 platinum each, and you can trade things to other players for platinum. The main things people trade are prime parts (from void relics, typically go from between 2-10p), rare mods (like those from orokin derelict vaults, nightmare mode missions, or just rare or inconvenient mods, like Bite (1/15,000 chance to drop from any animal enemy, goes for 65p) or Rime Rounds (a reward from Spy missions, which most people don’t like, goes for 30p)), and riven mods.

    Riven mods are total random chance, in that most of them are near-worthless unless you roll really good stats, but for certain popular weapons, even absolute garbo rivens can be worth 100+ platinum. A few weeks ago I sold a Furis riven for 150p, for instance.

    The website almost everybody uses to coordinate trading is warframe.market. It’s 3rd party and a little annoying to make an account, but I’ve made several thousand plat trading through it. You can also always go to trading hubs like Maroo’s Bazaar in-game or try to sell stuff in trade chat, but there are a lot of scammers who’ll try to rip you off there.

    Also, if you do the weekly Nightwave battlepass objectives, there’s always 1 free warframe slot (and 2 free weapon slots) somewhere in the reward progression.
