TOKYO—Japan is likely to stop short of regulating bitcoin after a ruling-party panel looking into issues surrounding the virtual currency decided that no legislation was needed for now.

Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's Liberal Democratic Party also said Thursday that no single government agency should be appointed to oversee the digital currency. Instead, it called for self-regulation by those involved in trading in bitcoin, as the party seeks to nurture the fledgling industry.
