The magnet moving towards the loop will induce the opposite voltage in the loop, as .00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001 volts induced in the opposite direction is enough to reverse the current direction in the SC loop the magnet will basically not be attracted at all. Except of course for the fact that this would collapse the magnetic field of the loop, so this helps keep the current flowing.
So what will occur is a hand off, the voltage induced by the magnet will be equal to the voltage induced by the collapsing magnetic field, so the magnetic field is slowly collapsed, there is no more current in the loop and the magnet has gained KE. Where did this come from? Simply the energy you put into the loop to establish the magnetic field. (It might be a superconductor so it takes no energy to maintain a magnetic field but it does take energy to establish one) In this case energy is conserved, and energy is always conserved unless you use the aether, space time to change the rules.

Your new experiment (attraction rather than alignment) simplifies things somehow (no torque, just linear acceleration), but let's stick to the non-wire-resistive loop shall we, it makes things simpler, and closer to the electron orbit or spin counterpart you are comparing it to. 1/ Using an external current source, let's start a constant current through the loop. 2/ Zero wire resistance, zero radiation resistance, constant current so zero auto-induced voltage -L*di/dt, so zero voltage drop. This means we can connect the loop back on itself and remove the current source without stopping the current ok? Let's do that, so that loop voltage will remain zero for ever, and define this as time zero for the energy balance. 3/ Now let's release the magnet. It should indeed be attracted and accelerated towards the short-circuited current loop so KE will be gained, but how could the energy be drawn from the loop if voltage is zero?
