I'm trying to store an address into a registersymbol. But as default, symbol can only accept up to 8 digits, how can I increase that size?

Why do you think symbols can only accept 8 digits ?
It works fine with 64-bit addresses

Post the code in question and we can let you know where you went wrong.
mov [baseAdr],rax
Should've worked just fine.

Is baseAdr located within 2GB of the assembler code that accesses it? (are you properly using the 3th parameter of alloc ? )

if not, then you'll have to deal with the possibility that the distance can be bigger

in which case you'll have to code like this:

EAX has 142AC9C88
but GMP has 42AC9C88 (8 digits only) Sad

EAX can not contain 142AC9C88 as EAX is a 32-bit register
RAX (which is 64-bit) does contain 142AC9C88, but EAX will contain 42AC9C88

so use:

RAX is what I needed instead of EAX.

Thanks for pointing out EAX is 32 bit only.

Code works as intended now.
