As a very casual watcher and reader, I've always wondered what happened to all the human/elf/dwarf rings and did they do anything at all anyway?
The 9 Rings the Nazgul had, the 7 Rings were all over the place (Sauron I believe captured 2 of them), and as for the 3 Gandalf had one, Galadriel had another, and Elrond had the last one. As for their fate, they were bound to the power of the One, and once it was destroyed the other Rings lost their power.

For the sake of fun backstory, Gandalf is not an elf (duh) and only ended up with one of the rings after the original elf owner Cirdan gave it to him when the Maiar (Gandalf and his wizard buddies) showed up on the scene. Gandalf was considered the wisest and most level-headed of the bunch, so that’s why he was chosen as a ring bearer.
Also their rings weren’t crafted by Sauron, but by Celebrimbor at the behest of Sauron who masked himself as some type of good/benevolent entity. Celebrimbor was the best blacksmith the elves had and you can live out his story if you play the Shadow of Middle Earth games.
