mov cannot be use to move data memory to memory : see this for all the possible combination with the mov opcode.
you can do that instead:
mov rax, [rax]
mov [r8], rax
also your code contained a second flaw:
mov [r8], [rax] do not indicate the size of operation.

Another way how to copy 1,2,4 or 8 bytes from memory addressed by `r8` to memory addressed by `rax` is `mov rsi,r8` `mov rdi,rax` and then either `movsb`, `movsw`, `movsd` or `movsq`.. – vitsoft Dec 15 '21 at 18:57
