Description
I noticed that some BTC/fiat currency pairs (e.g., BTC/TRY, BTC/UAH) are available in the klines folder. However, the BTC/USD pair is missing. Instead, there are only BTC/stablecoin pairs like BTC/USDT, BTC/USDC, and BTC/USDP.
Is there a specific reason why the BTC/USD pair is not included? I’m particularly interested in this because stablecoins may introduce distortions in high-frequency price data, due to liquidity differences or peg dynamics.
Would it be possible to add BTC/USD if available, or clarify if it’s intentionally excluded?

Research direction
Start by inspecting the klines folder and comparing the existing BTC/fiat and BTC/stablecoin entries. Check whether BTC/USD is available through the project's data sources and follows the same layout. Done means the pair is added consistently, or the issue clearly documents why it cannot be included.
