Some annoying person decided it would be funny to make a site which sets custom protocol handlers (irc:, bitcoin:, etc.) on chrome to go to their site.
Is there any way to prevent this?

This copied from online help:
Service handlers often provide helpful features to deal with specific protocols and in Chrome they are enabled by default. You can disable or re-enable them via the Chrome settings menu:
Select the Chrome menu on the browser toolbar
Select Settings
Select Show advanced settings
In the Privacy section select Content settings
Locate the “Handlers” section:
- To enable: select Allow sites to ask to become default handlers for protocols
- To disable: select Do not allow any site to handle protocols
