I have a simple question - and maybe it is better to marry not for money, but for a loved, reciprocating person ?

The thing is, if you marry for money, you become a kind of commodity. And the one who pays, most likely with time will find "more attractive goods, for acceptable money", and ... you'll have neither money nor a happy life. And it doesn't matter what you won't have in the end - crypto or fiat money, you won't have it

That's right.
Also a thing is that you'll like begging for love when you're just going to marry for money. Well, as they say it is just being practical but that practicality will make you suffer emotionally and mentally.
Even if you're that rich but you're not in loved with the person you chose as your partner. At the end of the day, you'll still find for that true love, no riches, no material things, just pure love.

That's literally the opposite of practicality. In this economy we cannot judge those who get married due to money. Moreover, we cannot assume and just claim that one day they will find a reason or way to actually love or care for the person they marry. An individual can learn anything they set their mind on, whatever it may be; hence, it is not impossible for any individual to learn to love someone or at the very least care for them to the point that it is very much possible for them to stay with that person for the rest of their life. Love, as good as it is, will not feed us nor provide our needs to live a good life. Money makes the world go round and you will realize it once you actually work for it and see just how much you need to rely on it. At the end of the day, the need to ensure a good future where you are eating three times a day and a have a good place to stay overpowers the desire for love.

We do really have different views from this topic. But I have to disagree that there's no one can change his mind from loving somebody they least like.
I've known people that have done it for life and it's not really that they're for the money but they need to stand on their own and just continue what they've started.
There could be reasons for that why they need to learn to love somebody because they're already on that relationships even if they don't have to like in fix marriages.
